Hi! I'm struggling on hide again in Library those movies pertaining to a franchise collection. (I want to show only the franchise collection, i.e: "Alien collection - 4 movies")
Any hint?
(Note: With Plex collections build-in feature it worked but the movies appeared again when starting to generate collections by Kometa's "default:franchise")

Are those movies also in another collection which is set to "show items"?
no, all other collections I have are configured with collection_mode: hide
What is the visibility in the Alien collection set to?
you mean, this?
No, the setting you show above for "CINE". What is that setting in the Alien collection?
ok, the collection comes from this config line, I guess
but it's possible that was generated with a different config. Should I remove the collections and regenerate all of them now again?
In the first image in this thread, you show a screenshot of the settings for some collection called "CINE".
I'm asking what the same screen for the "Alien" collection shows.
This setting
"CINE" is the library
none
it generate all this collections automatically with this line of config
- default: franchise
That setting can't be "none". It has to be one of these four values:
ah, in Plex! sorry
I'm talking about the setting for that collection in Plex, not in your config file.
What other collections are those movies in?
for example the first one, it seems it's the only one
Well, ordinarily how this works is that if a given movie is in any one collection that is set to "show", that will override any number of "hide".
I suspect that these movies are in some collection that is set to "show items".
ok, now it came to my mind that I have a collection "by folder" that contains those movies
the config is the following
"Clássicos": plex_all: true filters: filepath: Pelis_Retro collection_order: added.desc sort_title: "!004!_classic" collection_mode: hide
and ok, the Plex config has this
now with what you've commented, it has sense that they appear
so, is there a way to say "hide all items that pertains a franchise collection?" (but not the case with other collections)
No. This is a Plex thing. Any single "show" overrides any number of "hides".
😢
it's a pitty I just wanted to keep all these collections out of the library + at the same time show in the library only "collectionless movies"+franchise collections
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE CLARIFICATIONS! 👌
I'm just starting to use Kometa and I'm very happy. It's an amazing thing. Thank you guys to keep it rocking!
