BETA: New Home Page, Settings re-org, and On Boarding

Yes, because that is still currently the new "home page."

URL is https://mychannelsdvr.net:8089/admin/home

What v2023.09.29.1338 did was rename "About" in Settings to "Status" (as @hancox suggested above) and made it the default section in Settings. But it did not make Settings the new "home page."

Agreed, if we can't get the ability to customize the home page itself by choosing which sections (widgets?) we use most, being able to choose which page is earmarked as the home page would be welcome too. Until then, I will just try to always use my new bookmark (...admin/settings/status) and not just "my.channelsdvr.net."

First thing I noticed was I can't get to the stop button if I play a channel on my phone from the web view. I don't normally do this but I will sometimes to test a new change I have made.

Edit...
Thanks for fixing this so quickly.

Clicking on the Sources section in left hand navigation throws this error for me:

Looks like they just fixed this one with 2023.09.29.1743. I was getting the same error, checked for new pre-release and now the error is gone

AHHHH!!! Changes!

At the very least please position "Activity" at the very top of this list, I believe it's the #1 reason many of us visit the webUI from our phones. This is after scrolling down, on an iPhone 13 Pro Max*

*with Display Zoom set to "Larger Text"

This is what I get now when I click on Channels DVR Server ... I will just wait for a final.

The latest update ( 2023.09.29.1842) tries to setup / onboarding as if it's never been setup before after a reboot. I refreshed the page, and it went away. All settings, etc., seemed to still be intact with no issues.

You don't have any content in your library, what you're seeing is working properly.

Yep you are correct was just setting it up.

One minor thing I noticed and perhaps it's just me, but in the image I have attached, it seems like the wording on the drop down menu for Prune Local Content perhaps should be more clear? Like maybe "Prune Deleted Content" or something? I use that fairly often when I delete stuff via another app and that wording is not obvious to me that that is what it's for. I only know because I use it often enough.

For some reason I thought it used to be worded differently but I could be wrong. Again, possibly minor thing, but thought I would mention it.

There is now a setting to set your default home page for the web admin. This is the page that you will be routed to when you visit the site without a path ie, the first load.

So now, not only can you set it to be Settings again and have the old behavior, but you can set it to anything else you want.
