Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Lumière Movies

You can find further explanation about how to use the features of Lumière! in the dedicated page of the plugin settings. After installing Lumière!, take a look at the section "Lumière! help".
Of course, pay a visit to the Lumière! Movies home or GIT repository. Do not hesitate to share your comments, glitches and wishes. The plugin does more or less what I need but users have helped me improve Lumière! a lot. I want to get rid of those links that open a popup! Look at "General Options -> Advanced -> Misc -> Remove all links?" and switch the option to "yes". Links will not be displayed anymore, both for the "widget" (inside posts) and external links (like popups). I want to keep data forever on my disk/server There are two ways: 1/ Use the automatized refresh of the cache function, a feature that will ensure that you cache is up to date forever by refreshing you current movie/people cache every two weeks. Go to "Cache management -> Cache general options -> Cache automatized functions" and tick "Cache auto-refresh" option. Selecting this option will remove the time expiration of the cache, which will be automatically set to forever. 2/ Keep the cache forever without refreshing it. Go to "Cache management -> Cache general options -> General options" and click on "never" in "Cache expire" to keep forever the downloaded data from IMDb. This means that changes made on IMDb will not be reflected anymore in your cache. Should you have selected that option, you can still delete/refresh any specific movie you want in the cache options. In most cases, previous option "Cache auto-refresh" should be prefered.
Although one widget only can be added per post, should you use the "auto widget" feature, you may display up to two movies on you sidebar: one automatically created according to your post's title, one you would have manually added in the sidebar (metabox post options). Inside your posts, you can insert as many movies blocks as you want, there is no limitation. Compatibility and incompatibility A list of plugins that are compatible and incompatible with Lumière is available.
If Polylang is installed, new features for taxonomy are added, such as a dropdown form for selecting the languages in taxonomy pages (such as https://yourblog.com/lumiere-director/stanley-kubrick/). Just select what data turn into taxonomy, it will work out of the box.
Content Security Policy (CSP) is a webserver based security avoiding injections to your pages. It greatly improves the security of your website. Although it's difficult to make WordPress fully CSP compliant, Lumière is fully CSP compliant both for the admin and the frontend interfaces. Neither javascripts nor stylesheets are directly added inside HTML tags, and the plugin uses the standard WordPress system to add scripts and stylesheets. In order to add a CSP nonce, it is advised to use the standard 'wp_script_attributes' and 'wp_inline_script_attributes' hooks to inject your nonces into scripts, or use a regex WordPress buffer technique to inject the style nonces.
Sure thing, just untick 'Display only thumbnail' in general admin options, untick "Display only thumbnail" and insert the size you want (in pixels) for the picture.
Sure thing, just fill in the width and heigth in general admin options.
Sure thing, just select one of the theme available in general admin options, either in 'plain page' or 'popup' sections.
Sure thing, you can also modify the order of these details. Just take a look at data management options.
No data is sent to IMDb about end users. The website host does its own queries to the IMDb, without knowing who is visiting it. Only the website owner is known from the IMDb, and must comply with the IMDb privacy policy No data about the end user is sent to any other third party, so Lumière! is GDPR compliant. A short paragraph can be accessed in your admin privacy policy page, which can be added to your own privacy policy page.
