Plex Update Banner - Ad A Whats New Option

Feature Suggestions
1

When the Plex Media Server has an update, there are currently 2 options Dismiss or Download. I often find I then copy and paste the version number into google with the works Plex Update to see what the features are.

I think with every update, there should be a third option of Whats New which opens up a tab with the change log. This would allow for the ability to see what is new before deciding if you need to update or postpone. I typically will ensure I update timely for issues that impact (or may impact) me.

Good idea. It would make the info easier to find.

FYI, it is available now, just in a different location / manner.

In PMS Settings -> General, if an update is available there is a link to a “What’s New” instead of showing “Up to date.”.

You can subscribe to the Plex Media Server announcement thread. You’ll receive an e-mail when the thread is updated. To subscribe, scroll to the bottom of the thread and change status from Normal to Watching.
