When a new user is create, admin can choose which libraries a user can view.  There use to be a way to update this.  There no longer is.  The only way to add or remove access to a library for a user is to delete the account and create a new one.

Do you see a screen like this in user settings? This is where you would change what libraries your users have access to.

I think you are looking at the phone app. Enabling access to all libraries is no longer an option for admin.  In addition, there is no selective library access to add just one or two libraries or take some away per user anymore in the web version.  My web interface looks like this:

That is general Users tab. You need to edit individual user.

I think access is mobile only.  On desktop, the only similar option I have is:

  Allow Media Deletion From:

That is not what I am looking to do.  On desktop, the allow access to libraries is availble when you make a new user and then it's gone.... at least on my setup.  Please do show me where you actually have that access inside individual user to add remove them from access to a library.  The screen shot above seems to only show it for mobile app.

Can you show specific examples of your issue as I don't see any change here as Grim has shown.

Obviously, I have a different UI v. 4.7.8.0.  I checked for any CSS custom on the page nothing shows display:none; from custom.   I searched for "Access" and could not find it in the DOM at all for this page..  Maybe mine is non-licensed or 32bit and is different from your UI?  Or a different version?

Yes you have to enter a users as these are per user settings.

OK, inside User detail.  Where are the controls to add or remove a user from library access?

User settings do not allow add remove from library access.jpg

Related user access question... (perhaps a separate thread would be better?)

You're close, but you need to select the Access tab. Can you take a screen shot of the tabs you have at the top of the page where you see "Allow media deletion from"?

Aha,  I found it.  Sorry it was custom css height limit on .skinheader...

Sorry everyone.  Thanks for responding so quickly.  It was all my fault to my too fancy CSS custom styling.
