Show Unwatched Items Menu In Top Bar

Hi

Is there a way to show the Unwatched Items menu in the Top Bar as the first option instead of going to More and then selecting Unwatched.

Unwatched is pretty much the most accessed option for me so putting it upfront would be awesome for me.

 

Thanks

 

 

We are still looking at refinements to the UI.

We are aware that the categories vary massively in importance between users.

thanks mate

I'll second the Unwatched in the menu bar suggestion.

Thirded.  I was actually just going to make this recommendation the other day but it slipped my mind.  Especially since the TV shows has room for quite a few more categories at the top of the screen.

You rock (as always!)

Well, I hate to do this to you Roidy, but I would rather you drop actors into the “More…” list so that that “More…” stays on the screen (a better design I think). I also do not use Unwatched and even have the Unwatched count turned off, so I would rather have it near the end of the shelf (just before more) rather than the 3rd one in.

Umm.. This is going to be one of those thing were everybody wants something different, I don't think many people will want it stuck right near the end as for most people "Unwatched" is a pretty important section (I use it more than On Deck).  Sounds like I may need to add the option for people to choose which sections are show in the nav bar.

Since this is here, anyone know how to batch process multiple movies and TV from Unwatched to Watched? I just started using Plex when Plexconnect became available so my whole newly imported library for the most part is marked Unwatched. I have access to the OSX, iOS, Plex/Web, and Plexconnect clients.

Well, on my Windows based Plex server, if I open the browser interface to the server, on the left side of the screen there is a checkmark button.  When clicked, a check box appears on or by each movie.  This will allow you multi-select items.  Once selected, there a button on the left to mark as watched.  This is the only way I know of.  IF you collection huge, this may be a problem, so if you are looking for some sort of programmatic batch I can't help.

You can also click on one show, hold shift, select all the ones you want to select, and then click mark as watched.

OK, those worked. Thanks a lot guys. I can live with Unwatched now.



I would still like “More…” to stay on the page mainly for aesthetic reasons but if we end up getting options for what is shown that would be even better.

I think we need a more to allow users access to all the filters.

However allow a little time for a nice implementation ;)

Ok new commit guys, you can now customize which sections appear in the nav bars :) Enjoy.

I've tested it as best I can but there may be bugs I'm not seeing, please let me know if you find any :)

Nice work Roidy, I removed a couple categories under movies and I have a symmetrical shelf again. Seems to work without problems.

One question, though. I notice that if you deselect a category in settings they do not then appear in the “more” category so you basically lose them for future use. Is it too tricky to have deselected categories then appear in the more list?

What a great idea... Why didn't I think of that, it's totally possible, I'll add it tomorrow :)

Sweet.
