Popular Post bluemonkey07 590 Posted September 24, 2014 Popular Post Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) Whenever you select option from the main menu, the web client defaults to the first tab ie under movie it goes to suggested...under TV and channels it goes to latest etc Can each one remember which tab was selected so that if I have shows selected under TV and I go to movies and back to TV it will still have the shows tab selected rather than going back to latest? I hope you understand what I mean? Edited September 24, 2014 by Vidman 61
Diedrich 370 Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 Agreed. I really dislike the current default url links. I don't care about "suggested", I want to go directly to my list of shows. Same thing for Movies; I want to go to my list of movies and not what was added latest. If you don't want to change the code, would you at least identify which html, CSS, or XML file these links are in, please. 6

emby.ch 3 Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 You can change this manually and it's very easy. >> Note, make sure you have a backup off your system. 1. go to your ..\dashboard-ui\scripts\ directory. 2. make a copy from "librarybrowser.js" for a backup 3. now open "librarybrowser.js" and search for the row 490 4. change the value from "return 'moviesrecommended.html?topParentId=' + item.Id;" to "return 'movies.html?topParentId=' + item.Id;" 5. click save and save the file 6. delete the browsers cache and cookies 7. Login and enjoy! PS: We have made many changes in our WebClient. If anyone would like to have a look what we made (still in build), go to http://stream.ink and type in the Username "preview" with the password "preview" like blue sliders or a new User-Hovermenu. 1
jmotto 1 Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 Code must have changed in the last three months, because that value doesn't exist in that file any more. Librarybrowser.js has this if (item.SongCount) { as line 490 a search of the JS reveals that moviesrecommended.html isn't present. How do can users chose what page to land on when they click on a library source? At the moment, it seems that if you click on your media, it should go to media. Not a suggestion of media.

nicheplayer 8 Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 This actually needs to be fixed in the code. No one wants to land at "Suggestions." Why would you? 3

Koleckai Silvestri 1151 Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 Controlling default, or even better all the tabs, is something that I have been hoping would be implemented for a long time. Not a fan of "Suggested" either simply because it has the wrong name. 1

Koleckai Silvestri 1151 Posted December 31, 2015 Posted December 31, 2015 You don't really want to edit that file. Every time there is a server update, the change will be undone and you will have to redo it. The best way is to get the Settings and interface to change to support this.
Deathsquirrel 744 Posted December 31, 2015 Posted December 31, 2015 It would be fantastic if the server remembered this on a per user basis and the clients could query the property to do the same.

TheBudda 1 Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 The Suggestions tab needs to go or give the admin a choice of what tabs he/she would like 1
Diedrich 370 Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 Any progress on this? It was requested September, 2014. Starting on a particular tab should persist through logout.

Magic815 18 Posted July 26, 2016 Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) +1 for this change as well. (Looks like the first post is up to 33 likes now). I'm two days into using Emby, and this is the first sore spot that sticks out to me. Default landing tab for Movies and TV Shows should be configurable by the user. To take it a step further, I'd recommend allowing all tabs to be user configurable. Meaning for both Movies and TV Shows, a user should be able to turn on/off each tab, reorder the tabs, and select a default landing tab. Any comments from developers on if they think this is a good idea? Do they see themselves getting around to this in the near future? Edited July 26, 2016 by Magic815 3
