v2.5b => v3.0 - Everything except for the Rotten Tomatoes Link is automatically grabbed from the IMDB ID. No more manual template edits.
v3.0 => 3.0.2 - Added choice of automatic or manual YouTube trailer.

Main Features:
-Lytebox Cover Art (Automatically grabbed)
-IMDB Link (Automatically generated)
-Rotten Tomatoes Link

-Admin Rating
-Movie Title (Automatically grabbed)

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.

any solution for it?

installed btw.

Works on 4.0.3... Problems could be that the video from youtube is not embeddable.

or you havent entered the video code correctly?

www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvgEnadE8vw <-- This is for youtube link

--------------------------- ZvgEnadE8vw <-- this is for trailer.

[promet]

edit.....thanks..

[RobbieZ]

Checked on my board. Video plays ok for me.



Now im sure I read that the upgrade to 4.0.5 changes the way vbulletin handles video's

See this thread https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=608

Geek actually says it was 4.03 but everyone is saying this fixes AME 3 on the latest vbulletin.

I havent seen any other mods that handle youtube in forums or members profile's.

If this mod stops working when I upgrade then I will have to uninstall this lovely mod.

Shame on you vb

PS nice artwork can u share ? *edit* sorted

PPS your icons are in the wrong folder

Only enter the Red part of the url and it works fine with VB4.0.5

Also Youtube urls may look like this.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnJjYnzZSZo&feature=pyv&ad=5726383069&kw=a-team%20trailer

Again only copy the Red part of the url that is the actual video ID.

i did it thanks guys....

[ragarcia87]

Thanks for the posts guys and the intalls

promet, I'm going to be looking into the reason in just a minute. Ill dedicate today to making sure this will work with 4.0.5 and trying to see whats wrong with Sorky Sub Forum List Control clash when the mod is 'Below Forums'.

///EDIT///

I have just tested the mod with 4.0.5 and it works well. The trailer shows up and it doesn't seem to clash with the Sorky - SubForum List Control. Not with the default settings anyway. I have attached a screen shot below of it working 'Below Forums' with Sorky - SubForum List Control.

[RobbieZ]

Cool, it may be some settings I have on sorky's

Hm. No idea. Could you take a screen shot of the clash? Or explain the clash better?

[bada_bing]

[ProFifaLeagues]

Installed and working great!
Thanks
