Manually add server by ip / hostname

Is it possible to manually add a plex server? I can’t really find a way to do it.

[Solved]
The problem was, I was using the reFocus theme, which does NOT have said option. Changed the theme back to the original and added the server. Thank you !

Go to Preferences->Network->Media Server and check ‘Manually specify server’ and enter the IP address, leave the Port at 32400, unless you have manually changed the port in your PMS server settings.

I presume you are referring to the new setting:
Settings ==> Server ==> Network : Show Advanced and enter IP or domain in Custom Server Access URLs

Not necessarily. Some users prefer to specify within Rasplex (PHT).

Don’t usually see you in here!

Helps to check top of post, especially if you’re going through the ‘Unanswered’ section, caught me out a couple of times, nice to see you here though

I might one day revisit Rasplex - i did have a go a year or so ago but that was when it was really really slow

I was actually looking for the setting in RasPlex as mentioned before, but only because I have missed this update, as this solves my problem completely !! (Running plex in docker)
