Using the modified web interface

If you run Jellyfin as a container, there are two different ways to use the modified web interface:

  1. Mounting the new web interface to your existing Jellyfin container, or
  2. Switching container images

If you do not run Jellyfin as a container, you can follow the native installation instructions.

Method 1: mounting the new web interface

  1. Download and extract the latest modified web interface from GitHub actions
    1. Click the most recent action run
    2. In the Artifacts section, click the jellyfin-web-VERSION+COMMIT.tar.gz link to download a pre-compiled copy of the web interface. This link will only work if you are signed into GitHub.
  2. Extract the archive somewhere on your server and make note of the full path to the dist folder
  3. Mount the dist folder to your container as /jellyfin/jellyfin-web if using the official container, or /usr/share/jellyfin/web if using the linuxserver container. Example docker-compose snippet:
services:
    jellyfin:
        ports:
            - '8096:8096'
        volumes:
            # change `:ro` to `:rw` if you are using a plugin that modifies Jellyfin's web interface from inside the container (such as Jellyscrub)
            - '/full/path/to/extracted/dist:/jellyfin/jellyfin-web:ro'  # <== add this line if using the official container
            - '/full/path/to/extracted/dist:/usr/share/jellyfin/web:ro' # <== add this line if using the linuxserver container
            - '/config:/config'
            - '/media:/media:ro'
        image: 'jellyfin/jellyfin:10.8.0'

Make sure to clear the browser's cached version of the web interface before testing the skip button.

Instructions for Unraid users only

In the Docker tab, click on the Jellyfin container, then click on "Edit" and enable the advanced view. Under "Extra Parameters", add one of the following:

  • If using the jellyfin/jellyfin container: --volume /full/path/to/extracted/dist:/jellyfin/jellyfin-web:ro
  • If using the linuxserver/jellyfin container: --volume /full/path/to/extracted/dist:/usr/share/jellyfin/web:ro

Method 2: switching container images

  1. Run the ghcr.io/confusedpolarbear/jellyfin-intro-skipper container just as you would any other Jellyfin container
    1. If you reuse the configuration data from another container, make sure to create a backup first.

The Dockerfile which builds this container can be viewed here.
