Syncing Collections to new server build?

Server Version#: 1.32.4.7195 (Lifetime Plex Pass)

I’ve been running PMS for many, many years. I have built a pretty extensive set of collections for lots of groups that make my wife happy. (I mean, that’s the most important thing, right?)

I had a Ubuntu box with Plex running in a Docker container and it connects to an older Synology for all of the media. I just finished copying all of the media to a new Synology and set up a PMS Docker container on it. Everything looks great and it’s running perfectly, except last night my wife was trying to find something to watch and asked “Where are the Collections?” Oops.

The paths have all changed and I have moved to a new structure (Following Trash’s guide this time) so just a simple backup and restore I don’t think would solve for that. Maybe I’m wrong.

Any ideas on how to move the Collections or a tool that can do that? I originallly built some of them with one of the Plex Auto Collections scripts that I pulled of Github and can certainly do that again, but I’ll have to redo all of my posters (ugh) so if there is an “Easy Button” to just move them over, I’d love to hear about it.
