What to know

• Timezone in this project is set to GMT+8 in parts of this code (see line 5 of admin/admin_backend/cleanup.php for example), while the showtimes are set to GMT+2 by default due to some unknown reasons.
• Admin account setting can only be done via MySQL on the users table by updating the isAdmin property.
• firstName is stored under a cookie property due to concerns about over-querying the MySQL server each time you visit any part of this site.
• Please configure your own payment gateway under the /backend/gateway directory for payment. Do note that the Redirect URL for the gateway configuration should be under /backend/gateway/postProcessing on your own server that this system is running at. Do note that all the required variables from the "Payment" form has been included in the TEMPLATE file.
• Malaysian Ringgit (RM) has been hardcoded in parts of this code as its default currency. If you need to use another currency, please change the files accordingly.

│   ├── movieID
│   └── profile
└── style.css (exists)

• Ratings are stored under /admin/add/properties.php. By default, the ratings under this file are Malaysian film ratings by the Fillm Censorship Board of Malaysia (LPF), and images with the same name as the rating set should be stored under /assets_public/images/filmRatings as a PNG file.
  • Rating information text on some pages are also hardcoded. Please change both /backend/payment/index.php and /filmDetails/index.php accordingly.
• For every new seating template, user should modify the rows and columns by copying the template.php file under /admin/halls/seatmap to the PHP file that has the generated Seat ID.
