Featured Content Bar on Home Screen

[Drake97]

the instruction for this one is only for windows, is there an instruction using Ubuntu?

1) Create the ui Directory

Code:

sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/jellyfin/web/ui

2) Copy your chosen spotlight.html file (making sure you inserted your API key) to the new "ui" folder

Code:

sudo cp /path/to/spotlight.html /usr/share/jellyfin/web/ui/

3) Add the relevant script to home-html.chunk.js

Code:

sudo nano /usr/share/jellyfin/web/home-html.chunk.js

4) Ensure the ui folder & spotlight.html are readable by Jellyfin

Code:

sudo chown -R jellyfin:jellyfin /usr/share/jellyfin/web/ui
sudo chmod -R 755 /usr/share/jellyfin/web/ui

5) Restart Jellyfin

Code:

sudo systemctl restart jellyfin

6) Clear Browser Cache

Make sure to clear your browser cache to load the updated home-html.chunk.js & spotlight.html

Hi Ted,

I was one of those who had problems with the installation of the content-bar in linux and after the small tutorial I'm running fine, however I keep some trouble:

1- everything works, i can see recommended movies but I got this giant black space when using the web version:



2- As much as I edit the file List.txt (I created it manually) it does not suggest me the movies and series that I put, it continues showing randomly the suggestions, could it be that the permissions are wrong or should I do something else?





as info for the black space problem, I pasted the CSS code that you put at the end of your github page but it still shows the black space, however, in the mobile version this does not happen, it looks perfect.

thanks in advance for any help
