How does the update work? I changed about 8 files and added 3 new files. If i do the update does it do a dif and not affect with my changes?
Thanks!
Amazing! – My only question does the application have an api or ability to generate a json feed or any of the sort – id love to turn it into a native iphone app – however I would use phonegap or some sort of wrapper and cant use php – would only be able to use some sort of socket or front end parser—-again amazing work and detail! thanks
Not out of the box, but you could easily achieve it if you know php.
Hi,
When I click on the facebook logo in the bottom right corner, I have a popup , with this in it:
MTDb – All things Movie and TV
MTDb, Movies, Series and Celebrities database.
the-guard.net
I have change every were MTDb but I cannot find where this text and the picture are from…
Should work now, in future visit https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/ and enter your url to reset facebook tags, otherwise it might take a day or so for new ones to take effect.
Thank you
Thanks for the update and for taking into account for the registration of the posters.
Now that I come to buy it, I’ll do my tests.
If necessary I will return to you.
Hello,
I just installed version 1.5 and here are some problems:
- Display problem in firefox 26 IE 10 … -> http://zupimages.net/up/14/03/5jcl.png
- I do not have the page: Dashboard Users Page
- I do not have the page: Dashboard Groups Page
- Step 2.1 for the translation does not exist in the documentation.
Seems to be working fine on FF and IE, can you right click on the invisible text, select ‘inspect element’ and take a screenshot of the computed tab on the right?
As for the dashboard you’ll have to go to app\config\packages\frozennode\administrator\administrator.php and change ‘Users’ and ‘Groups’ words to all lowercase.
Ok good for points 2 and 3. (Dashboard)
And for translation ?
For translation, follow configuration section > timezone, locale, secret key.
As for the colors, that is not actually a bug, seems like you changed colors to white in css, that is why you can’t see the text.
I changed nothing. Installed without changing anything.
Hmm, try changing the color scheme in dashboard and send me your site url via contact form in my profile.
When I change in the administration, it is the same thing.
Send me your site url via contact form please, I need to see where that white color is coming from.

Hi, Just bought the script. My main issue is that when you click on any movie label it loads a different movie all together. Please assist:
Hi,
go to dashboard > settings > options and under second ‘contact us email’ enter ’-’, it’s a typo, should be url separator.
Thanks that worked!
Another quick one: On the homepage: Full Review link does not work….kindly help
Also which file can I edit to change the site logo for the whole site?
1. Did you check the ‘scrape news fully’ in dashboard options menu?
2. You can change your brand in app/lang/en/main.php
The news section is working fine. The issue is on the ‘Reviews’ section on the homepage. The ‘Full Review’ link is usually http://domain.com/0 which is an invalid link. what can be done to this?
Can’t reproduce that, can you send me your site url/ftp details via contact so I can take a look?
sorry sent via contact form
hi, small error, but not really a problem, in 1.5 dashboard under settings – > options under the TMDB lang the filed wants a contact mail adress, the field_id is uri_separator also the title isn`t right.
2. error, after update the register and login page posted an 404 error? bevor the update it works?
Hi,
The first problem will be fixed in next update, as for the second, did you overwrite app/routes.php file? If so, send me your site url/ftp details and I’ll take a look.
yes, i have put this in the routes.php
Route::get(‘imprint’, array(‘uses’ => ‘HomeController@imprint’, ‘as’ => ‘imprint’));
because it was in 1.4 in the routes.php so that i can make my imprint page…
See if you have these in your routes.php
Route::get(strtolower(trans('main.login')), 'SessionController@create');
Route::get(strtolower(trans('main.logout')), 'SessionController@logOut');
Route::get(strtolower(trans('main.register')), 'UserController@create');
yes i hav it under //login/logout
ok i have send you the ftp login, i dont think its on this imprint link because i have deleted all imprint links and the error is still there?
Should work now.
thanks!!!
Absolutely amazing work on the update. You just increased the value of this script 10 fold. I have dealt with many developers here but I have never seen any of them work so diligently to make sure the script is working this perfectly. Thank You and I wish you much success!
Thanks, it’s my pleasure. 
awesome work on the update!!! cant say how much i appreciate someone on here that actually provides updates on a regular basis.
just one suggestion though “i havent installed update yet just used the demo” should put social login on the register page as well. 
thanks again
Not sure I understand the last part, can you clarify please?
well when someone sees the register button and hit it that is where the social logins should be also.
here is the view of the login http://gyazo.com/84ac8206c85141ca651adc069c928469.pngwhich is great if someone is allready registered.
if they are not registered they click the register button and see this.. http://gyazo.com/c60996c18c6ea22f7de9b8985c1e534f.pngalot of people are more likely to signup if they can just connect with a social account rather than filling everything out.
I see your point, will add in next update
so apart from movies and series you can’t add any other categories to this script in dashboard?
you said it was going to be there in the update
For the series with seasons….how do one add more seasons and make it watchable from the site. In version 1.4, one could add seasons it was just a link and not watchable.
Let say that feature is not in the dashboard, then how can one go about it cuz not everybody want imdb or tmdb. please if its not possible let some of us know so we can quickly come to terms that this script is just another shallow water.
This app has all the advertised features, It clearly states you can get movies/series data from IMDb, TMDB or create it manually.
Also, In all your emails and comments you have never actually explained what are these ‘categories’ that you want, I can’t read your mind.
Don’t be defensive now….if you didn’t understand then why in my last comment on here you said it was going to be in the update.
On the menu you said don’t add it in trans(), i didn’t nothing changes…when I did the menu appears with a “main.x”.
The series – How can you add more seasons/episode to a particular content.
to be more explicit – from ones Database Every season content has episodes (1,2,3,4 etc)......how do you add those episodes to that particular series/season movie and they are playable(not just there for decoration)
You can add new seasons/episodes by clicking ‘edit seasons’ and ‘add new episode’ in the series page.
Also, I’m telling you once more, the script comes exactly as advertised, the episodes pages included, if you want additional features you will have to implement them yourself.
Yeah the series episode don’t have their own trailer url. New episode is create is useless if you cant watch/play them. Have a look at them yourself
Episodes don’t have trailers, they have promos and neither IMDb nor TMDB provides those and pulling them from youtube programmatically is near impossible as there would be a ton of wrong ones.
that’s is what i am saying…..for people who have episodes…how do one get the url on there. I don’t care about imdb or…..youtube. Talking about ppl with their own database
Such functionality currently doesn’t exist, I may add it in later update, for now you will have to implement it yourself.
As I’ve explained somewhere in the comments before, you could put your video as part of episode plot and make sure the html is not getting escaped.
Hi r4mark !
I have uploaded the 1.5 update and then myurl.com/update …
It works so far, except two problems:
1. I can’t edit movies or series from the dashboard:
There are problems with your ‘poster’ field in the movies config: The location option must be a valid directory There are problems with your ‘poster’ field in the series config: The location option must be a valid directory
2. Dashboard -> settings -> ads
it shows only a black screen (gif 1×1 pixel)
Some ideas ? Thanks
problem #2 is resolved – it was the anti banner function from kaspersky – ads works
I can’t seem to be able to reproduce the poster issue, can you send me your ftp details via contact form so I can take a look?
Locally, in my dashboard i can see “actors directors users groups news”. However in my server i can only see Movies & Series and settings. nothing else..
Why is this happening?
Go to app\config\packages\frozennode\administrator\administrator.php find Actors, Directors, Users etc and change them to lowercase – actors etc. That should solve it.
Indeed it worked, superb support! thank yuo
Glad to help
I have an error when was trying to update to 1.5 version:
SQLSTATE[42S01]: Base table or view already exists: 1050 Table ‘titles’ already exists (SQL: create table `titles` (`id` bigint unsigned not null auto_increment primary key, `title` varchar(255) not null, `type` varchar(15) not null default ‘movie’, `imdb_rating` varchar(3) null, `tmdb_rating` varchar(3) null, `mc_user_score` varchar(3) null, `mc_critic_score` smallint unsigned null, `mc_num_of_votes` int unsigned null, `imdb_votes_num` bigint unsigned null, `release_date` varchar(255) null, `year` smallint unsigned null, `plot` text null, `genre` varchar(255) null, `tagline` varchar(255) null, `poster` varchar(255) null, `background` varchar(255) null, `awards` varchar(255) null, `runtime` varchar(255) null, `trailer` varchar(255) null, `budget` varchar(255) null, `revenue` varchar(255) null, `views` bigint not null default ‘1’, `tmdb_popularity` float(50, 2) unsigned null, `imdb_id` varchar(255) null, `tmdb_id` bigint unsigned null, `season_number` tinyint unsigned null, `fully_scraped` tinyint unsigned not null default ‘0’, `allow_update` tinyint unsigned not null default ‘1’, `featured` tinyint unsigned not null default ‘0’, `now_playing` tinyint unsigned not null default ‘0’, `created_at` timestamp default 0 not null default CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, `updated_at` timestamp default 0 not null default ‘0000-00-00 00:00:00’, `temp_id` varchar(255) null) default character set utf8 collate utf8_unicode_ci engine = InnoDB)
Did you empty your migrations table at some point? If so you will need to go to app/database/migrations folder and temporarily move out all the files from that folder that don’t start with 2014-01-12, then run update again.
Thank you, r4mark! It really helps! Best support!)
Glad it worked
I just deleted those files…
Well, just redownload the update.
Thanks!))
Can you post more informations or screen-shots for google app because I cannot find in the developers console “click on edit settings and under authorized redirect uri “
http://www.stooorage.com/show/2551/10710698_google-developers-console-2014-01-13-11-11-55.png it’s a little confusing….
In the dashboard:
I cannot add a google ads asynchrone in the field it doesn’t work for me.
On actors when I click on a picture under firefox I have a script error http://the-guard.net/packages/frozennode/administrator/js/jquery/select2/select2.js:107
On the setting you have 2 times Contact us email: and one with only 1 characters what is for?
Thank you
When you are logged if you click on you name on the top right I have this message
SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column ‘user_id’ in ‘where clause’ (SQL: select count(*) as aggregate from `reviews` where `user_id` = 1)
1. Click on ‘credentials’ and ‘edit settings’ under oauth.
2. You’ll have to manually insert async code just before closing body tag as they don’t work otherwise.
3.Can’t seem to reproduce that, can you describe it in more detail?
4.That’s a typo for last one, it means uri separator.
I will fix all the problems in bugfix update today or tomorrow.
Under oauth I have this: http://www.stooorage.com/show/2119/10711282_google-developers-console-2014-01-13-12-31-39.png
but it’s not working… For the script error I get this message only under Firefox and I cannot see the bottom of the page http://www.stooorage.com/show/2119/10711275_capture.jpg
Click on ‘create new client id’, can’t really read that language but it seems like either some sort of conflict with firefox plugin or permission problem.

Hello!
Please, tell my why does this error happens when I am trying to click the film in search results?
htmlentities() [<a href="function.htmlentities">function.htmlentities</a>]: Invalid multibyte sequence in argument (View: /var/data/www/app/views/Titles/Themes/Tabs/Similar.blade.php) (View: /var/data/www/app/views/Titles/Themes/Tabs/Similar.blade.php)
/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Support/helpers.php

* @param string $value
* @return string
*/
function e($value)
{
return htmlentities($value, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8', false);
}
}
Can you tell me what film exactly? seems like some encoding problem.
Hi,
Very nice script, good job on that. Now, by mistake I scraped thousands of titles in wrong language before changing to correct one and was wondering, what is the best way to bulk delete (replace perhaps?) these titles?
Secondly, same thing happened with the actors in a sense, that they’ve pretty much all scraped from IMDB and in english, so bulk deletion/editing tips are welcome on those as well.
My third questions regards the actor information. How can I translate the words “movie” and “series” from filmographies or do they come like that from the source?
Best regards and good luck with the sales!
You can hit truncate all data, if you want to delete all the movies and actors, other then that I’m afraid there’s no good way to do it, as there’s no way of knowing which titles/actors are in wrong language.
For actors you can go to app/views/actors/actor.blade.php and replace
{{{ $v['type'] }}} with {{{ $v['type'] == 'movie' ? 'your-trans-for-movie' : 'your-trans-for-series' }}}
Cheers, translation worked perfectly! And yeah, I truncated everything, but it was a pretty quick and painless process, so no biggie.
Thanks a bunch!
Your welcome
Hello, really like your script and the service. But will it be possible to fetch movies from imdv title after title? SO if i want to manually create an Movie, ic can use the info from imdv.
You will need to enter imdb id when creating a movie and enter 1 in the ‘allow update’ field.
hello, i really like your script it matchs really 60% of my needs, before purchase i have some questions: 1- what will happend if the IMDB changes something we going to receive the updates ? 2- do you provide a good documentation with the script ? 3- wich kind of templating do you use ? is it divs or file.tpl … ? 4- i need to costumize this script is it possible ? if yes i plan to add somthing like synopsis on hover. latest news smaller than the actual one in the demo etc etc… 5- if it’s never to costumize the script and the IMDB changes somthing will it be easy to do the updates ? 6- is it easy to change de filter from years to alphabetic filter ? Thankyou
1. I will update it of course.
2. I’d like to think the documentation is pretty good.
3. The app uses laravel frameworks, blade templating engine.
4. Sure, you can modify anything you want, you can check laravels documentation for how-to.
5. Yes, all the imdb scraping grammar is only in 2 files.
6. Yes, you’d just need to add ->orderBy(title, ‘asc’);
Thankyou for the quick answer , i have 2 other last questions now that i saw the dashboard demo part by part . 1 in the series is there a way to put the trailer of each episode or not ? 2 is it easy to add text boxs for translation next the one that are scraped from IMDB ?
1. Not currently, no. You could put the trailers as part of plot tho.
2. Not sure I understand the question, can you explain that in more detail please?
i need the website to be in 2 languages en and fr for en it’s ok i want to translate the grabbed text from en to fr, i don’t know yet how the script works but i suppose that i can add a text field next to each one grabbed in english to write my fr text, i hope that you get my point now sorry for my poor english
There is a custom field for every movie/series where you can enter text, html or whatever, it will appear under movie plot.
How to show more than 6 pictures in the movies or series? For the next update can you modify the light box in movies and series to move pictures to picture instead of clicking each picture to change it and a way to put comment under? Thank you
No easy way currently, as it saves reference/downloads only 6 images currently.
How I add embed in episode ? I want add embed for sneak peek from episodes.
You could add them as part of plot I suppose, You’ll most likely need to add some styling via css and go to
app/views/titles/themes/tabs/EpisodeList.blade.phpand replace
{{{ $v->plot }}} with {{ $v->plot }} so your code won’t be escaped.
Thanks
How I add to open like the function “Play Trailer”?
You’d have to look into bootstrap modal windows.
I tried Lightbox, but didn’t work
Well as you can see it does work for trailers, you’ll just have to look at how that works and mimic it.
Man, I tried some aways, but didn’t work
You have to understand I’m not gonna modify the script for the needs of every person, if you want custom functionality and can’t code it yourself you will have to hire a developer to implement for you.
You have to understand I’m not ask to you modify the scripts for me , I just suggesting a modification for everyone
I’ll see what I can do for next update.
Thanks man
Is it possible to NOT get movies from IMDb? I want to upload movies by myself.
Need to know that before i buy.
Yes, the script is fully capable of being a cms, you can create everything yourself and turn off automatic updating/fetching.
