Quote from: AESP_pres on March 05, 2008, 12:57:21 AMThat's why I have to go to Amazon or another sellers to get the picture for every DVD that I mention in the "What you got" topic.

For the "What you got" topic I use a HTML window which produces the bbcode I need. Here is mine, which create a list item with DVD name plus image tag using the scans from the Profiler online collection:

Code Select
<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
[li][b]<DP NAME="ORIGINAL_TITLE">[/b]<br/>
<SCRIPT language=javascript>
var a = '<DP NAME="UPC" Formatted="NO">';
document.write('[img]http://www.invelos.com/mpimages/' + a.substring(0,2) + '/' + a + 'f.jpg[/img]' );
</SCRIPT><br/>

[/li]
</BODY>
</HTML>

It is the first time since starting my Award plugin that I am creating a new plugin from scratch and I currently do not get it to show up in DVDProfiler. Since it is already late here, I will try to take another go at it tomorrow evening.

Thanks Tom!

Just try and it very simple. I will just have to use the order tag in the profiler.

I'm not really good with computer (I was a long time ago, not anymore), I don't even use the "tag" system with my profiler  :bag:

+ 1 for the help

Do we have plugins developer for "that" dvd profiling software around, who would be interested in taking a crack at creating a "TradingPoster"-style plugin for the WhatYaGot tag?

If only a small plugin is required to have one menu entry to generate whatyagot entries for the flagged DVDs, I can probably wip something up in a few minutes. What is all required for user settings? Only the user-specific URL part?

Yep, that's basically it. As Touti said, configurable opening and closing tags could make it more versatile, but as it stands, I'd just like to be able to set my personal phpdvdprofiler URL.

I have put a small plugin on my website. I called it "Trading Poster TG". Maybe I will extend it to something better in the future.
For now the following is supported:

  • Flagged->WhatYaGot: Will generate the WhatYaGot tag
  • Flagged->Image Tag: Will generate a bbcode tag for the front cover scan

Nice! Thanks a lot!

First time I tried, I got a "Requested Clipboard operation did not succeed" error. So with the same DVD flagged, I did a standard TradingPoster, and then tried yours again, and it been working fine since.

FYI: When no DVD is flagged, the currently selected DVD is used instead.

Minor bug with this: I forgot to change something and generating WhatYaGot tag with this will result in the incorrect ID. I will fix it for the next version.

Do you guys prefer, that no automatic linebreak is done for the WhatYaGot tags? (I myself do not have phpDVDProfiler so I can go either way).

I usually put them all on a single line, that way the images adapt to the actual width of the the screen. But either way is fine actually.
