Hi,
I am using the latest version of PVD. Thanks for this great app. I have indexed all my movies and got most of the information and posters from IMDB. However, I can't seem to find a way to get the Parental Guidance and User Reviews from IMDB. Can someone point out how I can get that? Thanks,

Welcome.
The plugin gets the [MPAA], but 'Parental Guidance' is an entire page at IMDb. You could add a link to that page to any field that takes them (e.g., [Comments]). The link URL would be '{IMDb URL from the [URL] field}\parentalguide'.
To add User Reviews, add a custom memo field (Preferences > Movies > Custom item) and then add that to the plugin using the Configure button (Preferences > Plugins > IMDb).

Thanks for the reply.
I assume I can use the custom fields to get other info as well (trivia, goofs, soundtracks etc.)? Is there any documentation on how to use custom fields?
-
The only additional data the plugin will get are those items listed in the configuration. In general, custom fields can be used for anything you like. What sort of information are you looking for?

Thanks.
I am looking to get the stuff under 'Did You Know?' on a IMDB movie page.
-
Same answer as for 'Parental Guidance'. Link to the /quotes and /trivia pages.

Thanks for all the help.
Also, can you tell me how can I get PVD to show more than one rating (for eg: both from IMDB and FilmAffinity?

Check bottom of every movie for the User reviews on IMDB. For example visit following link for the user reviews:
