ToroFilm - WordPress Theme for Movies & TV Shows 2.5.7

ToroFilm is a high-performance WordPress theme (developed by ToroThemes) specifically built for creating comprehensive Movie and TV Show Databases. It is designed to emulate the functionality of major entertainment platforms like IMDb, Netflix, or TMDB, making it a top choice for streaming curators, review sites, and cinema enthusiasts.

As of 2026, ToroFilm is highly valued for its "data-first" approach, allowing you to manage thousands of titles without slowing down your site.

🎬 Key Entertainment Features

IMDb & TMDB Importer: The standout feature. You can import movie and TV show data (titles, cast, crew, release dates, and posters) directly from IMDb or The Movie Database (TMDB) using an API key.

Auto-Season & Episode Management: Specifically designed to handle the hierarchy of TV shows. It automatically organizes seasons and episodes into clean, navigable lists.

Advanced Filter & Search: Allows users to filter content by Genre, Year, Quality (4K, HD), Language, and Rating.

Multi-Player Support: Includes a custom video player interface that supports multiple streaming sources, subtitles, and server switching for video hosting.

User Ratings & Favorites: Integrated system for visitors to rate movies and save titles to their personal "Watchlist" (requires user registration).

✨ Technical & Performance Specs

Built-in DB Engine: ToroFilm uses a custom-coded structure to handle large databases, ensuring that your server's SQL queries remain efficient even with a massive library.

SEO Optimized: Automatically generates meta tags and structured data (Schema.org) for movies, helping your reviews and titles appear with "Rich Snippets" in Google search results.

Responsive & Mobile-Ready: Meticulously designed for a "mobile cinema" experience, with touch-friendly sliders and optimized video player controls.

Dark Mode Native: Features a sleek, dark interface by default—the industry standard for entertainment and streaming platforms.

💡 Pro Tip: The "API Automator"

To keep your site updated in 2026 without manual work:

Strategy: Set up a cron job (scheduled task) within your hosting panel to trigger the TMDB Import Tool once a day. This ensures that as new movies are released or new episodes air, your site automatically populates with the latest metadata, images, and trailers without you having to lift a finger.
