Any way we could use it only in a "movie dedicated" sub-forum? :)

Yes you can. Just copy/paste the code below into the FORUMDISPLAY template of the skin you are using. I usually put it under the {vb:raw navbar}. Change the red "x" to the sub-forum id. I just tested this and it works. :) Please mark the mod as installed for future support.

Code:

<vb:if condition="$GLOBALS[forumid] == x">{vb:raw motweek}</vb:if>

Absolutely brilliant :D

Any other projects/goodies you have on the horizon?

I don't really have any projects mapped out but I am working on a huge update for this mod. :)

Working great on 4.3 using this to display in a forum section.
Great work, thanks.

To manually add the mod to one particular forum:

***UPDATE***

The release date on the IMDB information will be relative to what country your server is in. The 2.5b update is purely optional. If you want to have IMDB information automatically grabbed then you may use it. If you are new and not updating and want 2.5b you need to also download upload.zip

RobbieZ

07-28-2010 10:50 AM

Excellent.

A developer that supports his mods and keeps preening it :)

2.5b Note: You must use the FULL URL for imdb for the mod to call the information which is : http://www.imdb/title/ttxxxxxxx (just www.imdb - will not work)

Would be great to get a screen shot of it on your site if you don't mind. :) How do you feel about the IMDB auto information? I figured it would make things a bit easier.

RobbieZ

07-28-2010 11:23 AM

Do you mean the bug screen shot?

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2010/07/13.jpg
It also screws your navbar up :O

*****

The IMDB auto update is brilliant saves copying the plot info and look much much better.

Very nice. Looks awesome. :) I am working on another update. Hopefully this will be released tonight or tomorrow if I can work everything out correctly.

RobbieZ

07-28-2010 11:48 AM

I have a suggestion :D

You are using the double use of youtube - ie a video in lightbox and also a link above that leads to the external source - but it basically does the same thing.

When searching for sources on my site vbulletin search is very restricted as many movies are called The (something) etc etc

So we use a imdb code to search which brings back accurate results. tt1375666 is inception as long as the post has that information in it.

My suggestion if possible is instead of having a youtube link but maybe a result link (still trying to define the correct word)

So when pressed it searches for anything with imdb info of the movie of the week in it.

Search + this : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1375666 doesnt work but

search + this : tt1375666 does work :D

Well guys/gals, I know that I've been updating this mod like crazy but I think that v3.0 might be the final version. If it has bugs however I will fix them and release sub versions for the bug fixes. If you find any bug fixes feel free to post here. :) Enjoy my wonderful creation.

///EDIT///
I've got it working and it was simple but if you have the discussion thread set then why would you need to search for the thread?

RobbieZ

07-29-2010 02:01 AM

Your final update is fantastic.

Thanks.

I'll give it a go when I get home :)

ragarcia87

07-29-2010 02:11 AM

v3.0 - Note: Possible Bug Alert - I might be reverting back to not automating the YouTube trailer because some movies don't have a proper YouTube id and won't have a link or trailer.

//NEVER MIND//

If a YouTube link doesn't work post here and I'll see if I can get it to work for you. :)

RobbieZ

07-29-2010 05:19 AM

I thought all YT links had tt and then the number, the only problem would be the um-embeddable stuff buy you wouldn't use it in any case.

Britmovie

07-29-2010 10:39 AM

Ok www.britmovie/britforum the youtube doesnt pull any trailer in. Maybe this would be better to have as manual and auto selection. maybe even the same with others as well.

A great adition would be something where members can recomend a film and users can vote on recomendations for movie of the month. Or is this getting to complicated as its easy for me to say?

great work loving it!

Britmovie

07-29-2010 10:53 AM

Ok minor problem for me is I use vBSEO so where do I get the Discussion Thread ID from as its slightly altred. The last version I got working but can not rem where I got it from?

And if you look at the box outline its huge. Can I make it thinner or get rid of it?

Thanks sooo much again.

Britmovie

07-29-2010 11:06 AM

Ok worked out the thread ID

Britmovie

07-29-2010 11:15 AM

Thread ID worked out thanks.

As before I mentioned no Yootube is pulled up and when i click on the link I get a message on the yootube page

Quote:

The URL contained a malformed video ID.

maybe it would be better to have the option of these pull ups as auto or manual?

//EDIT//
Okay I added the Zulu YouTube trailer ID. The trailer should show up within 24hours. If it does not please contact me. :)

RobbieZ

07-29-2010 02:55 PM

Slight bug.

I used these details - tt1375666

Everything shows up beautifully :D

But when you play the you tube trailer it has embedding disabled by request.

I would suggest having an option to use your own youtube link source instead of the system pulling the info for you.

Screenshot of problem.

Can we have the title to include the year please ??

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2010/07/8.jpg

Nightmare on Elm street was made in 1994 & 2010 although the movie poster does kind of give it away. :D

------
.
Another suggestion - With youtube now trawling videos and enabling them to be um-embedded .

Is it possible to get trailers from other sources? Dailymotion / Stagevu / Googlevideo / Zshare - (note stagevu is DIVX)

Okay can I ask where it's pulling the yootube trailer from? Curiouse how you making a change somewhere fixes it? Would be great if it could be made to pull information as it does now but with the option to add info manual like before.

The reason why manual is needed to pull data as well is that some films may not have covers or even be listed with IMDB

You produce good pruducts the must be a good living here for you doing this.:up:

The reason I can change something is because the YouTube trailers are added by the users so if the trailer doesn't work you could just add it yourself to the correct movie on the site. Once the other version is made I'll release it here. :)

Thank you :)

///EDIT///

Updated to v3.0.2
v3.0 => 3.0.2 - Added choice of automatic or manual YouTube trailer.

///EDIT AGAIN///
I'm working on a new version that will archive the MOTW so that your users can look back on previous movies of the week. I'll try to get this done as quick as possible. It won't be able to archive the previous MOTW but it will archive the current and all future MOTW. If I can figure it out I'll add an update option that will let you manually add the MOTW. :)

About off topic: Hm. I guess I could update the code of the other one for vB4. They have the code marked as re-useable so I'll put something together and release it. :) It won't be as automatic as this one. It might just be the same mod but updated for vB4.

Thank you :)

I'm trying to get this to work on vBadvanced CMPS, I've added {vb:raw motweek}

underneath {vb:raw navbar} in the adv_portal template, so it looks like this.

Code:

{vb:raw headinclude_bottom}



</head>

<body>



{vb:raw header}



{vb:raw navbar}



{vb:raw motweek}

But it's not showing, is there something I'm missing with this?

It's not coded to work with vBadvanced. I could work on an update that would make it work but I'm still working on the archive system right now. :)

Hm. Ill check it out. Can you PM me a link to the mod that it conflicts with? I'll run it on my dev board and see about finding a solution.

Sorry guys I've been away for a bit. I'm about to jump back on the frontend UI part of the archive system. I have the backend coded already. Just need the rest to be finished. :)

If you could get it to work with VBA that would be great as I would like this to be visable on the page users & guests land on, which is currently my VBA portal, thanks for making this mod, it's really good and I've had a lot of positive feedback about it from my members.

Hi I use VSA Chatbox and got this error in it on Monday night when I set the new Movie of the Week to The Expendables.

HTML Code:

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: Couldn't resolve host name in [path]/global.php(29) : eval()'d code on line 310



Warning: file_get_contents(http://api.themoviedb.org/2.1/Movie.getInfo/en/xml/6234c0f30cff5246cd7ba4b759086a55/27578) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: operation failed in [path]/global.php(29) : eval()'d code on line 310

I'm just wondering if this is an error from there API or from the MOTW hack? I also wonder why it's appeared in the Chatbox?

I have to admit that I havn't seen this error since it was at the top of the chatbox for around 10 minutes or so then dissapeared.

ragarcia87

08-27-2010 12:17 AM

Da-Vinci, it's because a setting isn't set in the MOTW Mod and it can't file_get_contents of something that isn't there to get. :P
