Hi  
I have a main account for Plex and one “friend” account for my children to be able to reduce the list of the movies.  
It work fine but when I use rasplex with the children account, the main menu has only 2 items :  
The shared content  
The search menu

When I select the shared content I have access to all directory shared, but in stead of having them in the left list as I have them with the main account, I get square in the right part of the screen.  
Is it possible to have the same behavior with the friends account as with the main account ?

Many thanks
