Has anyone figured out a way to multi select multiple “moods” when viewing tracks in the new web interface? I was using this method to build mood playlists so I can listen to them on my Sonos (via Plex) but it seems this can’t be done in the new UI.
I would use the “filter” section but mood isn’t an option in the drop down.
Any suggestions on how to work around this? At the moment I have to login to the local web app directly but that will only last until the next PMS update.
Interesting, Moods is in the filter dropdown for me. However, it still doesn’t allow for multi-selecting moods. It appears that ability is gone.
It looks like Plex Mix is also gone.
I’m beginning to think this is yet another example of Plex’s “Release Ugly, Release Often” release strategy. There seem to be a lot of these subtle feature losses that aren’t obvious unless you use them.

It’s in the filter drop down for you? How did you get to it? Does anyone else see it…?
Yeah, I’m not sure why I see it and you don’t. Here’s a screenshot. Any help?
I also see it (can’t multi-select tho). You must be showing “Tracks” and not “Artist” or “Album”.
Yes. Moods has always been only available when viewing in Tracks mode.
Edit: Whoops, that’s not right. Also available when viewing in Albums mode (although it’s “Mood” in Albums, and “Moods” in Tracks).
This is also a problem when trying to create playlist like, multi-select 5-Star & 4-Star songs to create an auto-generated playlist based on song ratings. This worked in the previous version of Plex Web…
So I can see “Moods” in that drop down but when I click “Custom Filter” there is no “moods” to build off of. If there were that would be a workaround.
When I select “Moods” in that list it’s not possible to multi select moods. It was possible in the previous version.
Thank you for the help though! I’m thinking this is a regression.
In the android app you can select multiple moods then generate a playlist with that search result…
I feel like your not supposed to be able to do it by the fact that each time you check a mood it returns you to the top filter menu, but you can then go back and select another one and the previous one(s) still remain selected and still take affect.
Also it seems to be ‘or’-ing the moods, not ‘and’-ing them which is nice (instead of finding a song(s) which meets all of the selected moods it’ll accept any song that includes any of the ticked moods)
