Users not showing in the friends list, but can still access server

Server Version#: 4.49.2
Player Version#:

A while back I had some issues and was hacked so I had to reinstall everything. When I did I lost all my friends, but it wouldn’t let me reinvite anyone. It always says invite failed. However I just noticed people from my friends before are still accessing the server and watching. However none are on my friends list in the server settings and I still can’t see any of them.

Does anyone know how I can resolve this so I can manage access. Is there a local file on the server I can look at to see the users or maybe modify them?

You could manipulate the database, but that’s complex. In your case I would just change my password and them start a server from 0.
The only problem is that you would loose your watching history.

I did start from scratch that is where I am at now with no friends but them still able to watch and I can’t reinvite them

When you uninstall Plex server, the database is preserved, so I believe they’re still there.
Uninstall it again, then delete your Plex folder, and lastly install it again

Are you looking at your friend’s list using this version of the web app? https://app.plex.tv
