-Lytebox Cover Art (Automatically grabbed)
-IMDB Link (Automatically generated)

Installation:
1. AdminCP > Plugins & Products > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product]
2. Upload the contents of /upload to your root directory.
3. Go to: AdminCP > vBulletin Options > MOTW - Movie Of The Week > MOTW IMDB ID

Enter what comes after /title/ e.g., http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1139328

4. Go to: AdminCP > vBulletin Options > MOTW - Movie Of The Week > MOTW Rotten Tomatoes ID

Enter what comes after /m/ e.g., http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/10012063

To manually add the mod to FORUMHOME or FORUMDISPLAY use:

{vb:raw motweek}

To manually add the mod to one particular forum:
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.

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

***Note: I have tested this on vBulletin 4.0.5 and it is working 100%***

v3.0 Note: If you are upgrading from a previous version that required template edits you "MUST" undo those template edits or lytebox won't work.

For instance

Embedded YouTube Trailer would be 07XbSk7Rjt4

I really like this mod! I don't want to do movie of the week though, I would like to have a download of the week. How would I edit this to make each section say what I need it to say?

[notrick]

Why not make a totaly new page called Movies, where Admin can post movie information about whatever movie he wants and all and then cn have a thread dedicated to discuss it which will be shown on that movie page or probably a blog topic associated to it or may be article.

We can start with that and then we can do similar things for Actors, Actress, Directors etc.

Is it possible to add a cast variable to the code? In fact there are lots of variables but I can't find a list of available ones.
