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.

Good stuff. It would be good if it was integrated into a voting system like vb.org's own mod of the month.

Can you please have it so it is in its own frame instead of just having the blockhead.

Thanks

Bugs:

blockhead stays at the top whilst the mod is above the footer option enabled
collapse is not in same position as the rest (picky I know )
When collapsing 'Above footer option' mod will disappear and unable to recall until you move it to another location in ACP.
Need <br /> added to the top as it looks to close to other tables.

Will provide images on errors if needed

Thanks for the bugs report. Screeshots would be great that way I can look over the mod and take'em one by one.

Where would this be on the forum? Would it be a tab?

1) Above Footer bug - No header



But when you scroll up its sat here under the navbar



2) Notice these lines around normal forums.



There are no lines surrounding your mod.



3) First 3 circles depict correct positioning of collapse button , the last circle is your mod collapse button in wrong position

3a) Arrows point to spaces between forums but none on your mod.



The problem of the mod disappearing on collapse was incorrect.

Thanks

* I am using a hack to separate category's as normally they are stacked

I double this, thanks RobbieZ.

It shows on FORUMHOME and can be manually placed on FORUMDISPLAY or FORUMHOME.

Thanks RobbieZ. I fixed the small bugs you mentioned. There aren't suppose to be any lines on the mod. I have also but some space above the mod so that there will be enough space between it and the forums if put below forums. Thanks again for taking time to take screen shots of the bugs.

Anyone know if this works on 4.0.5 ?

It would be a handy addition to my site.

tagged..looks very promising indeed

[RobbieZ]

Thanks bugs fixed

* Please note that - Sorky Sub Forum List Control clashes with this mod if 'Below Forums' setting is used !

Above Footer and Below Navbar are fine but its better on the latter if you want to attract more activity.

* Nominated
