Allow for server IP in WebTools' Plex Channel view instead of 127.0.0.1 in URL #379

While using Plex webui on a remote machine, exploring WebTools channel shows:

To access this channel, type the url's below to a new browser tab
http://127.0.0.1:33400
http://127.0.0.1:33443

Would it be possible to build the URL with the server address instead (ie 192.168.1.50) and make it clickable to a new tab? (or if auto URL build is not possible, allow a config field to replace 127.0.0.1 by an user entered IP in the config page) Thx.

You are able to use your server's IP address by manually typing it into your browser (http://Your-Server-IP:33400), however, a clickable link in Plex->Channels->WebTools is not possible due to a security restriction in the Plex api.

After using your server IP address in your browser, create a bookmark in your browser, to save you having to type it in again.
