Server Version#: 1.22.3.4392 Windows PC
Player Version#: Web 4.56.4, numerous other devices (tested problem 1 and 2 on Apple TV, iOS, Windows Plex, Mac HTPC Plex, web local and plex.tv/web using Firefox and Safari).
I’ve been trying to use the settings located at Manage>Libraries>Manage Libraries to rejig my own home screen and that of my shared users. Many of the settings don’t seem to stick, though.
Problem 1:
I have a TV library that I want to be on my own home screen but not on the home screen of users I share it with. I presumed that I’d just need to set “Home” to checked and “Shared Users’ Home” to unchecked.
When I did this and checked with a sharee, they were seeing that library on the Home screen.
Am I misunderstanding how this should function, or is this a bug? This library WAS set to be visible and “Include on Home Screen and Global Search” when this test was carried out.
Problem 2:
Despite being checked for all my libraries, “Recently Added…” does not show up in my Library Recommendeds. For any library. It is definitely checked under “Library Recommended” for each library.
Problem 3:
For a good 15 minutes I was trying to get a library to show up on my Home screen by checking the Home checkbox. Every time I checked it it would uncheck itself. Eventually I remembered that I had set the library to “Exclude from Home Screen” in the library settings. Changing this let my check the checkboxes and have them stick, but didn’t help because of Problem 1 above. This seems a UI issue rather than a bug, perhaps some kind of warning that another setting is overriding the Manage Library settings to avoid confusion?
Hoping to get some clarification on if I’m expecting the wrong things or doing the wrong things or if these are just bugs I need to wait to be fixed. I’d really like some library on my own Home screen but don’t want to be cluttering my shared users’ home screens with them.
