This is great, but what happens when you have two shows or movies with the same name? For example, I just tried this on the TV show The Apprentice, wanting it to link to the UK version, but it linked to the US version of the show, which has the same name. Edited by Ennui, Jan 9 2017, 08:25 AM.

Cory, you could use the IMDb ID parameter instead of the name parameter or a combination of the two (intelligently detect if the input is an ID or movie name). |

This is a great idea. We've been testing this code and it's a bit hit and miss with names only. For example, if you try to add Will & Grace, it wants to add the TV mini series called Will instead. If you could add the ID too, I think that would get around that issue. |
