Plex - "recently added" issues

Featured Replies

I hope this is the right place. I've finally decided to ask about some irritating issues I've seen with Plex.  For some reason, the "recently added" sections in Plex never seem to work right. For example, in the "recently added movies" section, there are nearly 6,000 entries, and there are things in there that have not been touched since 2013. TV has the same problem, albeit less dramatically. 

 

Is there any way to clear all of those out or otherwise get the intended functionality working?

 

PMS is Version 1.1.4.2757, Unraid is 6.2. My library settings look like this.

 

Recently added means recently added to the Plex library, not recently added to your server or hard drives.

If you just installed Plex, or just rebuilt your Plex library from scratch, then everything would be recently added.

Or did you create some new Plex libraries and move files around?  Those files would be recently added to that new library.

Is there any way to purge that list, or to set a threshold on how long things stay there?

Far better place to ask is on the Plex forums for this I think.  Any question directly related to getting a Plex plugin or docker running is best asked in the appropriate support thread for the version you are using..
