PK's MovieDB dynamic website template
deazo:
WOW that is exactly what I needed, thank you so much!
I will not be able to try that for a while because I am away from home for a while, but I'll definitely give it a shot when I get home.
I have noticed you did not include the tags/keywords in your database, is this a choice or a limitation?
Keywords are very important to me, as they can help me find movies within a specific theme.
Thanks again!

The reason for missing keywords is that AMC doesn't use/import them, so they were never part of the original template. I could try to add them, shouldn't be difficult.

I managed to add the tags, but unfortunately they choke the server. Too much information to handle for the php parser presumably. They may work with smaller databases than mine, or more powerful webservers.

I'm not about to use this myself, but it's just too cool not to comment on...
If you were to add user rating and comments, people could use this to publish their own opinions and recommendations. They could be presented as a separate view, similar or identical to detail view, with comments instead of description and user rating instead of, or in addition to the IMDb rating.
Data added is a sort option, but it doesn't seem to appear anywhere. If user ratings and comments were included, this (or perhaps better, date viewed) would be useful. Return visitors, for example, could then easily identify movies most recently added/viewed/commented on.
blue334:
I'll consider what you suggest, seems like good ideas. The existing comment field would be impractical, since that is already used in a default imdb import. A custom field would be better, provided it can be exported by the export plugin.
Date viewed could also be made a custom field I suppose, if it can be exported it could be grouped in a separate section with user rating and comments.
