I have problem more often than not of attaching the Actor HTML card to the Movie HTML card. The problem is that the actor photo does not appear on the movie card - just the name and not linking to the actor html card. If the actor photo does not appear on the movie card what I have to do is DELETE the actor profile and re-add the profile back again. This is too tedious.
I used to get this problem until I found that the Actors ID didn't match the ID in the "Starring" of the movie card. In the end I downloaded all the ID's from IMDB (5900 in total) took a fair amount of time but the result is that I have no more trouble with photos and the DB works great. It doesn't have to be IMDB's ID number to work but they do have to match. I chose IMDB because there is a script, added my own photos for the missing ones
In addition to Michael: There is a function in the plugin for Actors Cleaning that will check the IDs. It finds double and missing entries. Maybe you should check your database with.

Yes JDommi, I'd forgotten about that, even though I used it last week just to find 8 or 9 actors that had not picked up an ID from IMDB when I imported movies. Good plugin
