Can I avoid the links?

Hello!

Of course the first words I have to say are: Many thanks for this excellent software! During the last days I have tried various applications for organizing my movies, and Personal Video Database was by far the best one for me. It is very easy and comfortable to use and the appearance of the data looks great.

In a certain respect PVD offers even too much features for my needs.  ;) Whenever a name is written into fields like "Actors", "Director", "Writer" etc. a link is automatically created. As I do not use these links at all, it would be fine if their creation could be avoided or if at least they could be deleted afterwards (so that the names can be seen in the field simply with their letters). Exists such a possibility?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Hello Peter,

I'm happy that one more user discovered how superior PVD is. Unfortunately, for now, PVD is abandoned by his creator. Ivek23 is the only person/user that can help so far to maintain certain level of usability. Such a shame for such a great piece of software.

Kind regards

Hello afrocuban,

thanks for your reply. Yes, by reading a little bit in the forum I saw that PVD is not actively developed at the moment. I thought that possibly Ivek23 or other members of the forum might have an idea how it could work to "get rid of" the links. (The same applies to some other questions that perhaps I will post later on.)

Welcome to the forum, Peter.

I apologize for the slightly delayed response to your request, the last few days I have been personally very busy.

It can not be switched off, but there is a small solution to the problem. This information can be added to the custom field. For such action plug-ins are not suitable, eligible for such action may come only a script, where it can invoke the information is transmitted to custom fields.

To better help solve the problem, which plugin or script using and from which pages downloading movie information. It makes you wonder just so that you'll help then help in solving the problem.
