Add-On Releases - IMDB Info Generator (Lite)

Click Install Please.

Info: What is this plugin for?

This plugin makes it possible to show data from IMDB Movie Database using the movie ID with a BBCode.

As far as I know many users were looking for a plugin something like this which pulls data from IMDB and shows directly in the post.

This plugin uses a script which is contributed under GPL. However, a big part of the system was rewritten and a lot of coding were done to integrate both systems.

Features:
Plugin Pulls these movie information:
- Contry (Lite)
- Genre (Lite)
- Time (Lite)
- Language (Lite)
- Director (Lite)
- Cast (Lite)
- Description (Advanced Version) (Extended)
- IMDB Score (Advanced Version)
- Thumbnail Picture (Advanced Version) (Now large picture avaliable for Advanced Version)
[s]-Trailer Link (Advanced Version)[/s]
- Advanced control of style, language and dimension. (Advanced Version)

Installation

Included in the zip file under "Documentation"

How To Use

You simple copy the part at the end of the IMDB link and copy after the tt letters the IMDB ID and write it between the tags.

Example: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0468569/ you copy 0468569 and write it between two tags like this : [IMDB]0468569[/IMDB]


Common Mistakes With This Plugin:
[s]- Your host must have the allow_url_open option set as OPEN or ON.[/s]
- Inside the IMDB folder "images" and "cache" folder's CHMOOD must set to 777 (Files and Subfolders)
- The Format of usage is [IMDB]0468569[/IMDB] not [s][IMDB]tt0468569[/IMDB] [/s]or [s][IMDB]http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0468569/[/IMDB][/s]


Credits and Notes:
- Part of the plugin was written under GPL.

Hello laztrix,
Thanks for the code. I really like it.
When I posted a test "post" to my forum to see how it works, every thing worked as it should be. So I wanted to go a further step and translate the table fields to another language than English. Unfortunately, it seems that you've encoded the PHP source file! Is there any way to translate the fields titles, e.g. Runtime, Director, Story, etc...


Thanks mate

Nope, it means that you can extract any movie information from the IMDB website (if it was there). But you can't watch the movie itself Man, there will be legal issues if you can watch the movie ...

Take a look at the screenshots and you might get a clearer picture of what this product is doing.

Firas S, yes the part we have written is encoded but that doesn't mean you can't translate the fields you've mentioned into another language. if you like to translate those fields you simply open the xml file and find for example this:

PHP Code:

<phrase name="producer" date="0" username="" version=""><![CDATA[Producer]]></phrase> 


[CDATA[Producer] this is that you need to change.

The quote below explained it better than I would
This plugin only pulls information from imdb.com. It's not designed to offer movies to watch.

That is completeley normal for the lite version. In order to see pictures and info you have to purchase the Advanced version.

In your administration panel click on "Custom BB Codes >> Ad New BB Code 

Title: IMDB Plugin
BB Code Tag Name: imdb
Replacement: <imdb><script type="text/javascript">ajaxinclude("imdb.php?mid={param}")</script></imdb>
Sample: [imdb]0383574[/imdb]
Button Image: images/editor/imdb.gif

All other setting stays default. You don't have to do anything else, save these settings.
