I want to change some icons of a plugin. To do this I edit the image and save it. But Plex never shows the new one. How can I force Plex to load a new one. Is there any cache for icons in plugins?  
  
  
  
Thanks

The cache is in ~/Library/Application Support/Plex/userdata/Thumbnails/PlexMediaServer. FYI, it also has all the FanArt in there too, and not just for plugins. I’ve dumped that cache a couple times and then PMS has to reload all the thumbs, fanart, etc. Not a big deal, just a heads-up.

Thanks for the information. Looks like I have to get through this. 😉
