I don’t how I can give a correct answer to this. It depends a lot on what result you want to have and your own tastes as well…

Hi GuteFilme,

The grid in its current form has sorting issues, it’s known and being worked on; it just takes time as I’ve had much work on the side these last months. Sorry about the inconvenience 🙁

Hi Shannon Whitty,

I don’t keep track of users, so I’ve no real way to provide you with live examples other than the demo, and as the plugin is not widely used I doubt you will get much answers here.

That being said, focusing exclusively on frontend indicates a possible misuse: this is a library plugin, meant for building personal libraries; the main point is to gather movie data, displaying is secondary and can be done anyway you want, even though the plugin comes with basic display. If you’re according more importance to the visual part than the data gathering part, you probably shouldn’t be using this plugin.

If you’re referring to IMDb for the metadata downloading, well WPMovieLibrary does not use IMDb, it uses TMDb (www.themoviedb.org) and, indeed, depending on the movie and language, some metadata may be missing.

As for switching the Headbox style, I’m no expert but there’s probably an impact on SEO at some point as different Headboxes styles don’t have the exact same content… SEO is not the biggest priority of the plugin, more focused on content than referencing.

And for the Allociné Headbox not displaying cast images, you can add this code to your theme’s functions.php file:

function remove_allocine_headbox_casting_tab( $tabs ) {

    unset( $tabs['casting'] );

    return $tabs;
}
add_filter( 'wpmoly_filter_allocine_headbox_tabs', 'remove_allocine_headbox_casting_tab' );

To remove the Casting block from the default tab, add this edited file to your theme’s folder with the following path: wp-content/themes/your-theme/wpmovielibrary/movies/headbox-allocine/tabs/overview.php.

Hi nadasumbang,

Yup, that’s a working fix for this; however like I mentioned above, be aware that in some cases it seems to prevent some icons to show properly… I never found a suitable fix that works at 100%.

What server config are you running, for the record?

Hi FirebatHero,

The icon issue is not unheard of, generally a server setting problem. If you can confirm the files are correctly accessible — well, should be, meaning they exist and have the correct permission — then it’s most likely the server blocking the files. There are good hints on StackOverflow about how to fix it, but it depends on your server; the idea is to allow the application/x-font-woff mime type.

As for the language thing, editing the .PO file is not enough, you have to compile that file to an .MO file. You can use Poedit to do so.

Hi elliebnader,

Unfortunately since this is a premium theme I can not test it; have you tried contacting the theme developer?

Hi d1same,

Unfortunately that’s a premium theme so I can’t test it. Have you tried contacting the theme developer?
