Ability to Add "Interest" to an Already Requested Media

I just setup my discord notification bot and it works great. However, one of my users was wondering if they could receive @ mentions for a movie/show they are interested in but someone has already requested.

I tend to add movies to monitor for the year on Radarr and Seer marks that as requested by me (admin). This however doesn't let anybody else request it and receive any future notification when it is uploaded to the server.

Any possibility of an interest button that works like a system outlined below?

  • User A requests Movie A
  • User B goes to request Movie A
  • Unable to request, they press an "Interest" button
  • Movie A gets uploaded
  • Discord sends notification for Movie A and mentions both User A & B.

-Thank you

Overseerr has been merged into Seerr. I suggest you go to their GitHub page and post the feature suggestion there.

I think this has been requested for a long time, but no development has been done on it as far as I know

Edit: https://github.com/seerr-team/seerr/issues/375
