Kick Tweak:
I want the ability to unlink a managed user without having to change my password and kick everyone off. Managing them through allowed devices is a nightmare sometimes because a lot of the time multiple users have the same kind of device and it doesn’t tell you which is which. I have also used this and had it not work at all.
I’m not actually sure I understand what exactly you’re asking for… would you mind elaborating or give a specific example for such a use case (e.g. emphasizing the current obstacles and how you would like to see it changed)?
Don’t use managed users for devices that are out of your immediate control. I can’t stress that enough.
If sharing with friends, or for use on devices outside of your immediate control, set up another Plex.tv account instead.
Basically, I like to have my people on as managed users because of my own personal reasons. Sometimes I might need to kick a person off, but I don’t want to kick everyone off and re-link them. I want the ability to unlink him where I click, and it forces him to get a code if he wants back in.
The allowed device list doesn’t always work and it doesn’t show who uses which when there are multiples of the same device. So at the very least, that needs improvement.
I’m aware of the risks and stuff. I do things the way I do for my own reasons lol
2022 clean-up: duplicate
There’s already existing feature suggestions asking for options to suspend managed users or shared libraries, similar to suggestions about better control over managed users and their devices
