Organizr is the admin-facing portal service in the server stack. It provides a central landing page for Smithflix management links and should be treated as a convenience portal rather than the public media entrypoint.
This page documents the organizr service itself. It does not replace the individual service pages that it links to.

¶ Config and Data Paths
- Config root:
/srv/docker/organizr/config
- App log directory:
/srv/docker/organizr/config/log
- Additional app directories under config:
keys, nginx, php, www
- LAN URL:
http://192.168.0.113:8081
- Public URL:
https://manage.better-than.tv
- Host port mapping:
8081 -> 80
¶ Authentication and Secret Locations
- App auth and portal configuration are stored inside
/srv/docker/organizr/config
- No compose-level secret was verified for Organizr on
2026-04-07
smithflix.better-than.tv currently proxies to Jellyfin, not Organizr
- Treat Organizr as a portal and navigation surface, not the canonical endpoint for underlying services
- Validate the portal locally on
:8081 before debugging proxy issues
- If links or tiles drift, update the linked service page as well as the portal configuration
- Keep
manage.better-than.tv documented as the current public Organizr hostname
¶ Monitoring and Logs
- Docker logging driver is
json-file
- Container health was healthy on
2026-04-07
- App logs are written under
/srv/docker/organizr/config/log
docker logs organizr is useful for startup and container-level issues, while the app log directory is better for portal-specific problems
¶ Backup and Restore
/srv/docker/organizr/config is within the documented Duplicati scope- Restore the full config directory so tiles, auth config, and portal state come back together
- After restore, validate the UI and a representative subset of portal links
¶ Failure Modes and Recovery
- Portal tiles can drift from the real public hostnames, creating operator confusion even when the underlying services are healthy
- Proxy breakage on
manage.better-than.tv can make Organizr appear down while the local :8081 port still works
- Because it is only a portal, many Organizr incidents are actually downstream service issues and should be diagnosed from the target service page
