SOLVED: At some point in the past month or two, all of my Collections are now empty

[lmm5247]

There is a job that runs when Jellyfin starts that cleans up playlists and collections when the media in them is no longer present.  What I suspect happened is that your media briefly was not available when Jellyfin started and that job cleared out your collections.

You can disable this job to prevent this from happening in the future.

Dashboard > Scheduled Tasks > Clean up collections and playlists.  Delete the trigger in that job.

Thanks, I just found this GitHub issue and posted there as well. Is there anywhere in the database I can pull my Collections from? or should I restore the collections directory from backup?

EDIT: Just saw your other post. Guess I'll recreate them, thanks!
