    Jellyfin Forum Development Feature Requests Allow Multiple Customizable “My Media” Groups for Library Organization

    Allow Multiple Customizable “My Media” Groups for Library Organization

    Add support for multiple customizable My Media groups on the Jellyfin home screen, allowing admins to organize libraries into separate sections instead of displaying all libraries under one large My Media area.

    I would like to request support for multiple customizable “My Media” groups on the Jellyfin home screen.
    Currently, libraries are displayed together under a single My Media section. For servers with many libraries, this section can become crowded and harder to navigate. It would be helpful if admins could create more than one My Media group and assign specific libraries to each group.
    For example:
    My Media Group 1
    • Library A
    • Library B
    • Library C
    My Media Group 2
    • Library D
    • Library E
    My Media Group 3
    • Library F
    • Library G
    This does not necessarily need to be unlimited, but having support for multiple groups would make library organization much cleaner and more flexible.
    Ideally, admins would be able to:
    • Create multiple My Media groups
    • Rename each group
    • Assign libraries to specific groups
    • Reorder the groups on the home screen
    • Reorder libraries within each group
    This would be especially useful for Jellyfin servers with many libraries, different content categories, or different ways of organizing media. Instead of having every library appear in one large My Media section, users could browse through clearly separated groups.

    If I am not mistaking anything here, you should be able to do this already. You just make a library and put your sources in it you want. Name said Library whatever you want it to be and it shows up on the home screen.

    I do this for ratings already. "PG", "PG-13", and so on. I also do this in EBooks for book types. All libraries I bunch together into one and organize the media in ratings so if age ratings failed or someone doesn't want to filter through say Manuals to read a Book or say Comics to see Magazines.
