Franchise Collections
The franchise Default Collection File is used to create collections based on popular Movie franchises, and can be used
as a replacement to the TMDb Collections that Plex creates out-of-the-box.
Unlike most Default Collection Files, Franchise works by placing collections inline with the main library items if your library allows it. For example, the "Iron Man" franchise collection will appear next to the "Iron Man" movies within your library.
This file has a Show Library Counterpart.
Requirements & Recommendations
Supported Library Types: Movie
Collections
| Collection | Key | Description |
|---|---|---|
<<Collection Name>>Example: Iron Man |
<<TMDb Collection ID>>Example: 131292 |
Collection of Movies found in this Collection on TMDb. |
Config
The below YAML in your config.yml will create the collections:
libraries:
Movies:
collection_files:
- pmm: franchise
Template Variables
Template Variables can be used to manipulate the file in various ways to slightly change how it works without having to make your own local copy.
Note that the template_variables: section only needs to be used if you do want to actually change how the defaults
work. Any value not specified will use its default value if it has one if not it's just ignored.

* **File-Specific Template Variables** are variables available specifically for this PMM Defaults file.

[Shared Collection Variables](../collection_variables.md) are NOT available to this default file.

???+ example "Example Template Variable Amendments"
The below is an example config.yml extract with some Template Variables added in to change how the file works.
Click the :fontawesome-solid-circle-plus: icon to learn more
```yaml
libraries:
Movies:
collection_files:
- pmm: franchise
template_variables:
build_collection: false #(1)!
movie_105995: 336560 #(2)!
radarr_add_missing: true #(3)!
```
1. Do not create any physical collections in Plex (normally used when you want to perform an "operation" instead,
see the third tooltip for the example)
2. Add [TMDb Movie 336560](https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/336560-lake-placid-vs-anaconda) to
[TMDb Collection 105995](https://www.themoviedb.org/collection/105995-anaconda-collection)
3. Add items missing from your library in Plex to Radarr. When used in this particular file, hundreds if not
thousands of items may be sent to Radarr - proceed with caution!
Default Values
These are lists provided for reference to show what values will be in use if you do no customization. These do not show how to change a name or a list.
If you want to customize these values, use the methods described above.
??? example "Default addons (click to expand) ¶"
<div id="addons" />
```yaml

??? example "Default Template Variable movie (click to expand) ¶"
<div id="movie" />
???+ tip
Pass `movie_<<key>>` to the file as template variables to change this value per collection.
```yaml
{%
include-markdown "../../../defaults/movie/franchise.yml"
comments=false
preserve-includer-indent=true
dedent=true
start="# check1"
end="# check2"

<div id="name-mapping" />

Pass `name_mapping_<<key>>` to the file as template variables to change this value per collection.
