Special Text variable help

[bright thorn]

I'm trying to edit an overlay yml file that works for audience_rating, I basically want to do the same thing but for the mal_rating special text, however it seems that they don't have access to the same variables. I'm mainly trying to figure out what variables I have access to for these special texts as well as just general guide for creating/editing overlay templates.

I attached both of the yml files (happy to just paste the text in here as well if preferred). The "audience_rating" one works as expected, but I can't get the mal_rating one to work. Current error I'm getting says "Overlay Error: mal_rating.gte is not a valid filter attribute".

Any help is appreciated! If this is the wrong forum for this kind of question, I'm happy to move it.

Providing Log Files

1: Go to your config folder

2: Go into the logs folder

3: Look for meta.log (not meta.1.log etc)

4: Drag it in the Discord thread - the whole thing, DO NOT EDIT IT

5: Still confused? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Log file too big? USE PASTEBIN or ZIP THE FILE

Thanks for using Kometa

I think I see that my error is in trying to use mal_rating as a filter, is there a way to accomplish what I'm trying to do here? Basically determine the correct background image to use based on the mal rating. I also want to do this with IMDB which is mainly why I'm asking.

[neon wing]

The available filters are listed on the filter page. Neither mal nor imdb rating are available in that context, so doing what you want based on rating is going to require code changes.

[bright thorn]

Gotcha, so for now the only supported way to do what I want is by using audience_rating / critic_rating as filters..

Thanks, I think that's all I needed clarified.
