View Full Version : Profile Enhancements - iTrader Stats in Profile Tabs

This ultra simple mini add-on will add iTrader (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=102965) stats in a tab inside your users' profiles. The fantastic iTrader is still the only solution for an eBay like feedback system in vBulletin, and we are still using it in many clients' websites, sometimes modified to work with other integrations.

When installed, it will add two settings to your vBulletin ACP - iTrader Settings Menu to let you activate the feedback tab and choose where you want the new tab to appear.

Installation
The add-on requires just an XML import. No file edits or template edits, unless you want to customize the position of the feedback tab further. Remember to enable the display in profile using the new option added in your ACP's iTrader settings.

This is JUST a tiny add-on for people using iTrader, which is one of the best add-ons developed for vBulletin, and which can still be used with 3.7 with some changes you can read about in the iTrader thread. You need to have iTrader installed. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=102965&highlight=itrader


That's it.

Thanks! I have edited the post to underline this. In general I always prefer to have our add-ons turned off by default, even though I admit this is such a minor addition that it won't make a big difference.

a question.. the itrade tab went in the first position (left).
How can I move it to the right like in the image you attached??

Hey, you should see a Profile Stats Position setting we added in the iTrader Settings menu, in the ACP, at the end of the list. You can select "left" or "right" for the position.

We are not experiencing that issue in any of our clients' websites. It must necessarily be some other add-on you have installed. Maybe you installed an add-on not working correctly with vB 3.7, I have seen that error in other clients' boards when they were using vB 3.6 and 3.5 add-ons in vB 3.7; it is caused by a code change in vB occurred in one of the 3.7 Beta releases. Needless to ask, but just in case: are you running 3.7 Gold?

Let us know.

Follow the guidelines in the thread. Most of our clients have actually a heavy modified version of the system we integrated in other scripts, but indication in the iTrader page should be more than enough to get you going.

After the install, make sure you go to your Admin CP > vBulletin Options > iTrader Settings. Turn it on and select which side you want the new "Feedback" tab to show up (left or right). The default after install is to not have the mod activated....you have to go and turn it on.

Hi I installed on www.britmovie.net/forum
In vbulletin options the pull down list has a ghosted, no text, space. When clicked upon it brings the options page up. When activated it gives a white page with my custom and even the default template. As this is perfect for my site I'd be greatful for any ideas?

Awesome thanks! I just downloaded iTrader and installed for the first time.

This mod made the difference and I'll let the users decide now lol.

Hello,

go to the plugin manager in your vBulletin ACP. Find the plugin "iTrader in Member Profile - Profile", the select Edit. Then, find:


'title' => 'Feedback'


Replace it with:


'title' => 'Assessment'


We followed the default structure in vBulletin profile block classes when writing this, but I might change this to use phrases when we have another release.

Thanks!

Quick question: which template do I edit to change the Feedback tab's contents? I want to put a "leave feedback" link in this tab, under the Member Profile section directly beneath the link for "View All Feedbacks For _______", using this code:

<a href="itrader_feedback.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$userinfo[userid]"><b>$vbphrase[itrader_submit_feedback] $userinfo[username]</b></a>

If I know which template, I can drop it in. A template search for "<!-- cat_itrader_stats -->
" (which shows up when I view the source of the page) only dumps me at a list of all the templates.

MagnetiCat
08-11-2008, 06:39 PM
Hello,

the template name is memberinfo_block_cat_itrader_stats. Find the line:

<a href="itrader.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$userinfo[userid]"><strong><phrase 1="$userinfo[username]">$vbphrase[itrader_view_all_feedbacks_for_x]</phrase></strong></a>

and add below something like:

<br /><a href="itrader_feedback.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$userinfo[userid]"><strong>$vbphrase[itrader_submit_feedback] $userinfo[username]</strong></a>

Thanks!

MagnetiCat

Very simple. First go in the iTrader thread, and download itrader.
Then, install iTrader following their docs.
Then, import this XML product through vBulletin's product manager.

That's all - it's a very basic add-on, really; nothing more than a few templates and some php code.

Personal challenges with loading iTrader which I'm totally sure are issues due to my lack of knowledge and comfort level migrating Admin.

I've successfully downloaded iTrader (I believe) it's visible under installed products, however I question the success of my install.

According to the directions under "read me" I am to edit "user group permissions" and that iTrader permissions "will show up at the bottom of the list".

Not so in my case. It is not showing as an option in my user group permissions, unless I've not found the right section referred too.

iTrader is visible now in my Vbulletin options. I believe I have not addressed two important parts of this install.

1. Designating where this sits on my site (this may not be possible yet if this part requires a URL- my site isn't live yet and still connected with the computer company that installed the software....I'm linked to their server right now)

2. Formally designating where my members "click" to get to to the Feedback system. I've seen iTrader sitting in two different places on two separate forums in the following locations:

a) presented near the member join date area (a place to click below that to take the member to the feed back system.
b) presented at the profile....members click their to link them to the feedback.

As of right now since my install I have neither.

Do I need to formally address this link from the Plug in Hook up location? If so, I'm then challenged by the PHP information it wants......???

Please help! VBulletin Customer Service will not assist on third party installs, they have been very clear about that.

Thanks so much for any assistance that can be provided. iTrader is a terrific product. I've used it many.....many times for trading and I'm looking forward to see it working on my site.

Can the shown Tab be limited to certain usergroups?
I think banned users should't have any benefits with this.

MagnetiCat
11-06-2008, 04:28 AM
Seshat Diva, those are more questions that should be asked to the iTrader developers.

Cocko, yeah, we might add some usergroup permissions for this. It won't take much, but we are busy with work on a couple of commercial scripts right now (somewhat related to feedback systems), so I am not sure when I will be able to do this. Anyhow, stay tuned for updates.

Meanwhile, you might wrap the template included in this add-on in this:


<if condition="!is_member_of($bbuserinfo, array(8,1)">

</if>


To prevent unregistered users from seeing this.

<if condition="!is_member_of($bbuserinfo, array(8,1)">

To prevent unregistered users from seeing this.

That did not work for me. In this way above I can prevent users seeing the profile
feedback tab but I can not prevent users (by usergroup, i.e. miserables) to have a
feedback tab in their profile.

I have played around with that for a while but don't see the right way for success.

Any other ideas?

Thanx.

My users depend on this feature and upgrading and not being able to have itrader would be a major issue, so much so that I would have to stick with 3.7. Thanks.

If you have Itrader with vb 3.7 and upgrade to vb 3.8, looks like iTrader will keep on working (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1716247&postcount=439).

Right - at the time this was released it was absolutely the first add-on using the new tab system in vBulletin profiles, so I suppose this is why it became fairly popular, considering iTrader popularity - but for most part, the code was simple and the HTML was from the iTrader profiles, with some minor edits.

Hello, I am one of the developers of this mini-plugin. We have received many e-mails asking us for instructions on how to remove iTrader.

While I would like to help, I repeat it: this add-on is just a minor plugin; we are NOT the authors of iTrader or in any way affiliate with it. To remove this plugin you simply have to uninstall the product. To remove iTrader, you should contact the old developer.

Thanks!
