Hello, I’ve seen many people talking about it so I don’t know why it is still not a feature. I sometimes see some posters changing even if I don’t want them to change. It’s very annoying because it happens randomly. Sometimes it changes the poster with the canadian version of it even if I first changed it to the english or french version of the poster. Is it possible to add the lock for the posters like the other fields please?

There’s already an existing features suggestion discussing that exact option. I recommend you comment/vote in that thread in order to help us avoid distracting or cannibalizing votes.

> Ability to lock posters the same way you can lock other fields. Regardless of the official statement posters do change. I’ve searched multiple posts on here and reddit where people experience the same issue but regardless posters do sometimes change. I’ve read "When you manually select a poster it is automatically flagged as locked in the Plex server database. "… but many many people have experienced this change, it definetely happens. I don’t know why out of all the fields that you can lock …

I’ll therefore close this thread as a duplicate.

It’s been a year and there is still no answer to this thread. That’s why I posted a new thread

Plex don’t usually comment on their roadmap or respond to suggestions unless there’s some clarification needed. Suggestions remaining open simply means they haven’t been implemented nor rejected.
