Blocked Audiobooks (tagged) still appearing to users


Recommended Posts

I have audiobooks that I want to restrict those to only be for certain users. Using the tag system and blocking access for all other users should work but you can still see the book series in certain locations and the books themselves in the folders tab. 

I have tagged both the series and the books themselves (all books in m4b format), and they do not appear under suggestions or authors, but the series seems to appear in the audio books tab as well as the genres tab and the books themselves appear in the folders tab (the folders thing is an issue for other libraries as well like movies and TV shows). You still can't play the content as it asks if you're trying to play an empty folder but I would prefer that there is no trace of books which a user does not have access to. 

Until that is fixed, would creating another library for these separate books solve this issue? that would be a lot of moving stuff around just for testing so I'd appreciate the opinion of someone who understand how this works better.

Thanks!

So I created a new library with only two book series in it, game of thrones and the simple wild. The first photo shows what a user with access sees when selecting the simple wild series. The simple wild (both the series and the books) is tagged with a tag that should be blocked for another user. They cant see the books in the suggestions tab but they still see and select the series in the audio books tab and can select it although they cant see the individual books nor can they play any of them. In the authors tab, they can’t see the author, which is fine but they can see the genre exists as well as seeing the series in there (but still can’t play anything). Used app because screenshots are more convenient but the same issues arise on the web app. 
 

For context, all audiobook files are single m4b files, and are listed as books in their respective series from the m4b files directly using the folder format audiobooks/author/Book/file.m4b
