dimmiemedia 3 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Hi, When i am making a new collection with movies as admin, other users are able to delete the collection that i have made. Is there a option that they can't? I also read about the parent control.... Anyone? Thanks 1 Link to post Share on other sites

dimmiemedia 3 Posted June 24, 2016 Author Share Posted June 24, 2016 Hi There Thanks for your reply.. I have checed this, but all other users are still able to delete movies from the set.. Link to post Share on other sites
Puff 4 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 hmm I actually never verified if that works on my system. None of my users would dare delete anything anyway lol I will test and let you know if I have that problem. Link to post Share on other sites
Luke 28198 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Collections can be created and deleted by anyone. They are currently a shared feature. We may expand on this in the future, but for now that's where it stands. Link to post Share on other sites
pir8radio 1180 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 When you select DELETE in the collection you get the warning that this will be deleted in emby and the file system... But this doesn't actually delete the movies/media in this collection does it? Link to post Share on other sites
Luke 28198 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 No, that's just because it's the same generic delete message. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Happy2Play 5564 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Just tested and no. Just a little confusing terminology. Link to post Share on other sites
dcook 245 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Agreed this warning is very misleading, When I was deleting my collections I first copied all my folders to another disk, because I was worried based on this pop up warning that it would delete from the file system as well as the collection, when it turns out the warning was false and it only removed the collections. Can we get this bug fixed in the future so the warning message is correct? Link to post Share on other sites
dimmiemedia 3 Posted July 1, 2016 Author Share Posted July 1, 2016 Thank god i am not the only one who find out that it's very misleading. I was in shock when i saw that message, and maybe my entire collection was gone Is there any workaround to hide this message? Greetzzz Link to post Share on other sites
horstepipe 284 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 please make an option that only admins can create, edit and delete collections. Regards Link to post Share on other sites

dcook 245 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I think Collections should be created/edited/deleted by the user who created them, while allowing any user to view/play the collection. While "Admin Users" should be able to edit any users collections as well. It does not make sense that regular users are able to delete collections. Can you please fix this in upcoming builds? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Luke 28198 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Yes that is what makes sense but i have not had a chance to get to that yet. Link to post Share on other sites
pir8radio 1180 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) I have a guest account setup, so I do not want random people editing or deleting my collections. As a temporary work around, until the emby team gets to this, I hid the "Delete", "Add To Collection", and "Remove From Collection" options using the branding/custom css settings in emby, please note this will hide the regular delete button if you have enabled access to delete items from emby as well as the option to manually add to collection yourself : button[data-id=removefromcollection] { display: none; } button[data-id=addtocollection] { display: none; } button[data-id=groupvideos] { display: none; } button[data-id=delete] { display: none; } button.btnNewCollection { display: none; } Edited August 13, 2016 by pir8radio 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Abobader 1880 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Good say, Personal view here. Admin's should only allowed to delete anything on the emby server, I know we talking here regarding db for collection, but why allowed it to normal users to be able to delete anything.. My best 1 Link to post Share on other sites
pir8radio 1180 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 (edited) Please Note: Who ever is using my CSS code above to hide these options... The below section will also hide the general DELETE option, meaning you wont be able to delete media, plugins, or other "delete" functions in emby even as an admin.. Without first changing the below to something like "delete1" and saving.. Just a warning so you don't complain to emby that a feature was removed LOL... : button[data-id=delete] { display: none; } Edited August 20, 2016 by pir8radio Link to post Share on other sites
