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.
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.
- Special Thanks to Melih B?y?k who made this plugin work.
-Bug reports, suggestions that would help improve this plugin are always welcome.
Hello i have installed IMDB Info Generator 1.0 but i have problem. Not show picture in editor and not work for me this product. I have vBulletin 4.0.1 and upload the files and edit the headinclude template.
Interesting. At first glance, it looks like I could make an AME definition compatible with this. I'll try and give this and install and see what I find.

Please make sure the imdb.gif has been uploaded to images/editor It must have been there because I included it in the installation.
I forgot to add something in the installation file. As we did before you have to add a custome bbcode:
Code:
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.

Intresting stuff, waiting for your work

I've read the imdb terms of use page before and It seems they are very strict about anybody using their information. As much we offer a advanced version doesn't mean we sell the information from imdb We do not encourage our customers to use the content as commercial purposeses.
Thanks it is now ok but why show "Δ?MDb Ratings" ...?
Because it only a feature we offer in the advanced version. If you are a licenced member of ours, please make sure you have downloaded one of our advanced packages.
