 * hello, im not a coder and i would like to use this plugin and populate the other
   fields while filling out info about the movies for example.

   about copying a folder and so on but I have trouble locating that and also understanding

 * Hi, to use the custom template feature you will need to do some programming /
   coding unfortunately.
 * You need first to copy the `mmdb_templates` folder inside you theme. And then
   you can work with the `custom` template file. Copying the templates inside your
   theme is a precaution, so when you update the plugin your changes are not lost.
 * The truth is that the custom template feature was designed in the original version
   of the plugin when the templates were in PHP. It was probably easier to program
   a custom template in the PHP version than it is now with the templates being 
   in Vuejs. But you can do it if you learn/know Vuejs.
 * In any case however you do have to write code to use this.
