My complements⊠Even with the few warts it has, it is an excellent tool. I use PMM and this lets me audit everything I need in my library. thanks much!!

I canât install on Windows 11. After starting the installation, enter username or email and password, I get "Common.Login.UnknownError dialogue box and thatâs it. I ended up figuring out how to login using a Plex X token and that worked.
Dane, Iâve not been to the forums in about 7 years⊠glad to see youâre an employee now. I wish you continued success.
Can Webtools-ng manage user sharing? I poked around the Wiki and didnât see the feature.
Iâve been looking for a web or win based utility to allow sharing multiple libraries with multiple friends/family at once for years now. I imagine selecting a library (or two/more), then in another section of the page selecting a list of Plex friends, clicking submit, and poof, all those friends have access to those library(ies).
I often switch out sharing of holiday and other seasonal image and video libraries. I do this less often than Iâd like since Plex doesnât include a multiple selection capability when adding or removing users.
Thanks for the kind words, and to answer your question, then itâs sadly not possible with WebTools-NG, sorry
Hey @dane22 , thanks for taking this up! I remember in the old WebTools way back when, there was functionality to import/export/share playlists.
To make a long story short: after a data migration, I lost a few yearsâ worth of playlists. I do have an up-to-date export of the current playlists (.CSV generated by Tautulli).
Do you have any suggestions for how I could get these playlists re-created in my new, working Plex instance?
Cheers!
Sadly, WebTools-NG does not support this.
When said, the old WebTools.bundle still works for Playlists, but sadly only allows import of own created *.m3u8 files

Feature request for WebTools-NG <Next.Version>!
Hey mates,
Iâd like to do this as well, but to share my playlists with friends who may just want to hear what I like. I was thinking HTML, perhaps with album art in an icon on the side of each song. Perhaps similar to what iTunes does when you print your album collection.
Thanks!
Alex
I am having the issue with view state copy not loading users. Is there a fix or just need to wait for next server update? Thanks a lot for your hard work btw way, export of playlists has been a life saver for me many a time.

@dane22 I have a challenging taskâŠ
I am still using xportTools of yours and I understand that development on this stopped.
I have a library full of movies with accompanying trailers for these movies.
Now, I need to find a list of movies in my library with non-German trailers⊠The audio language is given with each extrasâ video, but at the moment, you are only counting those extras by category.
Is there any chance that you will expand WebTools-NG export tool module in order to allow for audio language (extra) or extra video title?

Thank you for consideration.
Hello @rossinior
Sadly, due to both personal issues as well as lack of free time, I havenât touched the code for more than an year now 
When said, I still hope Iâll get time to awake WT-NG again, so please create a GHI with your issue, since then itâs not be lost

WebTools-NG version: 1.2.1.f962812 on Windows 10 x64
PMS Version 1.40.2.8395 on Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
I realize WebTools-NG is not being actively developed, but I thought Iâd ask here in case itâs not a bug and Iâm just doing something wrongâŠ
Iâve noticed there are several screens in WebTools-NG that do not show all seven of my Plex libraries. They show some of them, but some are not listed at all on various screens.
First, if I go to ExportTools and select Type (Library) and Sub Type (Libraries) and export, it correctly lists all seven of my libraries: Kids, Movies, TV Shows, Music, Photos, Home Movies, Videos.
In âDownloadâ under âSelect Media Typeâ, it only shows Kids, Movies, Home Movies, Videos. Itâs missing TV Shows, Music, and Photos.
In âExportToolsâ, I can select six of my seven libraries correctly, but âPhotoâ (under âSelect Export Typeâ) is greyed-out and I canât select it.
Under âPlex Media Serverâ â âFind Mediaâ, it only shows Kids, Movies, TV Shows, Home Movies, Videos. Itâs missing Music and Photos.
Under âGlobal Settingsâ â âLibrary Mappingâ, it only shows Kids, Movies, TV Shows, Home Movies, Videos. Itâs missing Music and Photos.
Anyway, just wanted to bring this up in case I was missing something, or if I should open an issue on github (in case thereâs a chance it gets fixed in the future). Thanks for your help!
WebTools-NG.log (88.7 KB)
Downloads are only supported from a movie library
Sadly also not supported
Only shows and movies are supported for that
Thanks for your reply. Is there a reason for these things not being supported? Are they limitations of PMS? Did you just not implement them in WebTools-NG (yet), but theyâre possible to add?
This. Is on the roadmap, just never coded
Can you please add a check-box to stay logged in so I donât have to copy and paste the token I have saved as the webtools shortcut name every time ?

When exporting posters to a folder tree, is it possible to:
- Have all the jpg files named poster.jpg
- Have the subfolder names match the name of the original movie file rather than just Movie (Year)
Everything is possible, but when said, I sadly havenât touched the code in almost 2 years due to lack of time
No worries, shouldâve phrased it better. Wasnât asking for that functionality be added rather I was wondering if itâs possible to do those things as of now.
Iâve gone through and set custom posters throughout my library and Iâm now trying to have a copy of the posters added to the actual movie/TV show folders to be used as local media assets. Iâve found some Python scripts on Github that say they do this but for someone without an IT/coding background it can be hard to follow because they donât fully explain some steps. 
The tool is awesome though, I was able to export all the my posters but it would take me way too much time to move them into the folders one by one⊠though I may end up having to do that.
