Pinning

Is there a pinning feature on HOME. I want to pin certain videos, pictures, etc on HOME so it can be easier to find.

You cannot pin movies on their own, but you can create a collection with those movies and publish that to HOME.

I find this really odd that the Movie and Audio libraries don’t have this feature but if you have your personal photos and home videos stored only in a PHOTO Library you’ll get the feature of being able to HEART them (Plex’s interpretation of Favoriting those specific files) and they show up as a Smart Playlist (shown as a playlist with a gear in the top right on it). What you can do is pin PLAYLISTS to the Home and then go to playlists to access these hearted files from the photo library labeled as Favorites under the Photo tab.

I think wanting specific photos to be highlighted can’t be labeled as a collection because the photo library hasn’t been given the COLLECTION feature. Instead Albums are still used. Tags and Autotags are the only option for photos in Photo libraries and can only be added to playlists of the same library type.

It strange plex doesn’t allow pinning. Collection feature is a mess, very unintuitive, and time intensive.
