I had a question for you guys...It's a little hard to try to find an answer when there is 94 pages of this stuff so I apologize if this was covered. I tried to search but I couldn't find anything on this...is there a way to disable the "Connected Clients" section ?? Reason I ask is because this has never shown anything for me, I've had up to 8 concurrent connections on the server and never once has this section ever shown me any "Connected Clients" with that said I'd rather use this space for the notifications. ![PlexNotify_zps8bb18145.jpg](http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w260/MarlonT42/PlexNotify_zps8bb18145.jpg) ---

> This is really the missing feature. Unless I missed something, has anyone been able to get this working? It uses an API endpoint of the Plex Media Server that has connected clients. It only shows local clients. When the functionality is available to Plex Media server it will work in Plex Notify. There may be a setting to disable clients i do not remember offhand.

Hey guys it has been a while so I figured I would fill everyone in on what’s the status is on Plex Notify. So I had gotten a proposal to make Plex notify a website. There will me more than just me working on it. This site would keep your server stats for you without any installation to your server. This will make Plex Notify more universal. There will be an optional windows service that you can install to get additional information gathered from the server. The desktop app is scrapped. A lot of the code in the service is being put server side. We will use your existing Plex TV logins to login to the website. I believe this is the best direction for Plex Notify. There might also be a name change to the product. There will be some subscription based features. For those who have already donated to the project I will ask you at some point in the future for your Plex TV name to get free premium service for a year as a way to say thank you for supporting the project. The price for the premium service has not been established but it will be in the $3-$6/month range. I have to see what the servers will cost. I will have more information as it develops.

Oh the API is still valid. There will be some minor changes to add username and Plex tokens to requests. The website will be free and most features will be free. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk ---

Jburlison, I appreciate and thank you for all the work you have and will do for plexnotify and the community! :cheers: I'd personally, rather not host all my details of who's watching what on a server that I do not control. I like having the local install and of the current (older) Plex Notify and will probably just keep that as it does the basics of what I need for now.  Once again, thank you for all your work and hopefully the local installed version is not completely scraped.. cheers, ---

Just to chime in, I would be a bit cautious about what are essentially portions of my Plex logs being kept on a third party server. You might remember a year or two back that the old plexapp.com website used to keep a few thumbnails of user's media collections when you were viewing the server pages; eventually this was removed because users didn't want even minor records of their media collection being kept at a remote location. I'm aware that Plex is primarily concerned with sharing your media but such detailed data being kept online is not ideal. I'm not sure how this proposed online notification service will work but I'm really not comfortable providing my own Plex logon details to a third party website. It was quite a while before I was even willing to trust my plex logon to the original Plex Notify app (I had to see if the dev could be 100% trusted! I tend to err on the side of caution.) If the web service can work in tandem with some sort of local and independent installation then it might be ok. Maybe the web service provides more detail and stats for those who have libraries shared with them. But I strongly believe that Plex logon details should not be shared around and certainly not handled by a third party. Just my two cents. ---
