kkorotev 12 Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 It's become impossible to make changes to my display settings: mypreferencesdisplay.html I can make apparent on screen changes, but they don't "Take".
Luke 42085 Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Hi, can you give an example? why do you feel they're locked?
kkorotev 12 Posted January 29, 2018 Author Posted January 29, 2018 I'm trying to change the theme color and it's stuck where I've had it the last few days. Can't change from dark to light. Anytime I re-enter the page, the settings are what they WERE, not what I changed them to. Make sense?
Luke 42085 Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 which theme setting are you changing? you do see there are two theme settings, right?
kkorotev 12 Posted January 30, 2018 Author Posted January 30, 2018 It's the old dog syndrome again. I never know what to do when I'm done entering data on a page that has no "save" button. I've learned that it doesn't matter as the info is automatically saved and changed as you exit the page. In this case, as my attempts to change the color settings (yes, on both or one at a time) became more frequent I was simply tried refreshing the page after I made my new choice(s). It doesn't work that way, obviously. Just now, 5 minutes ago, I discovered the page-back arrow DOES save the changes. Sorry for wasting your time again, Luke...
kkorotev 12 Posted February 11, 2018 Author Posted February 11, 2018 It's back. Theme color settings changes from VERY DARK to anything else only last as long as the browser is open. The changes dissappear each time I close then re-open Emby.
Solution DarWun 349 Posted February 11, 2018 Solution Posted February 11, 2018 (edited) It's back. Theme color settings changes from VERY DARK to anything else only last as long as the browser is open. The changes dissappear each time I close then re-open Emby. @@kkorotev @@Luke This may be a result of some of the display settings being saved in cookies. If your browser is set to delete cookies upon exit, you will have to change the theme settings every time you load emby in a new browser session (at least that is my experience with IE). For me the library view theme, enable backdrops, enable theme songs, enable theme videos settings do not stick between sessions, but for some reason the dashboard theme setting does.

kkorotev 12 Posted February 11, 2018 Author Posted February 11, 2018 (edited) Yes! Thanks for getting me on the right track DarWun. As I am using Chrome, with CCleaner, I can allow chrome to delete cookies on exit as long as CCleaner is set to protect "emby.media" from deletion. Edited February 11, 2018 by kkorotev
