Can't to rename the auto-generated "Collections" folder

[LordVZlomka 6]

Hi, on the main page, along the Movies, Shows, and Music, a new folder is automatically created named "Collections".  I can rename any folder except the "Collections" by right-clicking and selecting "Rename". In the Collections folder settings, the option is missing, along with many others.

It is by design and handled by language translations scripts within Emby string files (\system\dashboard-ui\modules\common\strings).  As this folder is auto generated by Emby so everything in hard coded.

Is it possible to rename within Emby UI, or do I have to go to the file directly?

Overall issue will be that file only applies to the web client.

Dev would have to confirm here but think the only options in your case would be using the api to rePost an updated config for that library.  @Luke

But do not know the side effects with this automated folder.

I see, it's strange. I recently migrated from Jellyfin, and it didn't have an issue with renaming it. Thanks!

Yea I guess there's no way right now but we should add that. Thanks.
