I figured it out. I will post what you need to put here in a bit.

I believe thats under devlopment :D

no upgrade instructions?

Same problem for me: The iTrader system is currently closed.

top stuff, just what i was looking for.
You can see a live demo on www.teenearners.com!

Hi Jason,

Looks like a great mod! :)

Does it allow you to restrict the options so that only I can sell things?

The reason I ask is because I would really like to do that instead of simply using paypal buttons, as users will be able to see my feedback like on eBay, and have confidence in purchasing from me.

Cheers

This is going to sound very noob, however, im new to vBulletin and dont know how it works, however, can someone tell me how to:

Edit all the usergroup permissions (all groups default to no access).

Thanks,

Matt

Any update on when there will be top TR list? Something similar to the "iTrader Extension?"

Upgrading is just like the previous version (and any vB plugin)... You upload the files then upload the XML via the CP... Not complex...

No, the system re-calculates out the scores in the user table every time a trade is done on their account. It's done because there are so many circumstances in creating/editing/deleting that trying to just pass the score and never recalc it would be a nightmare. Start everyone off at zero and they will build up a rating fast enough... I also do it to prevent overzelous admins or others from artifically boosting people's ratings.

Just minor little bug fixes related to the UI, but also the CSRF code has been implemented for vB 3.7.x compatability & security.

Someone else asked about installing on vB 3.6.x: You can remove the requirement for 3.7, but I do not know how it will respond to the extra variables with the CSRF code, other than that everything else is compatabile.

It's like eBay... You complete a transaction between two people and they can rate each other to build up a reputation as a good trader (like eBay). It's based on the honor system to a certain extent. You can require they link a URL, and you can configure to only allow URLs from within certain forums, and one of the people in the trade have posted (or maybe created? I can't remember) that thread.

Go to your admincp -> usergroups -> usergroup manager -> Edit Usergroup (go through each of them and set permissions accordingly, it should be at the bottom of each page).

A "top trader" list is not on my list of priorities. There is really no point in having except for some person to sit there and stare at themself on the top of the list, it provides no functionality whatsoever... But I will get around to it when I get around to it... I'm also planning on adding other stats like "most ratings / rated within the past month" and stuff like that.

If you have the problem with your forum being closed after you upgrade - Read Post #9 and #35

-------------------

As for an update, right now things are kind of on hold. I'm in the process of setting up my new server before I take it to the datacenter, hopefully first part of next week.

I'm trying to move all my websites off my current hosting company as fast as possible (because they have screwed me over one time too many). But there's a lot of custom stuff that has to be configured and installed, a major headache.

In the past couple weeks that has been where all my effort has been (which if they knew how to run their business properly I wouldn't be in this mess). First there was a major power outage, then I had to do a bunch of restores and repair work on the data because of corruption, then there has been ongoing DNS issues. They have pushed me over the edge in their horrible service so I'm jumping ship as fast as I can.

If you have read this far, then hopefully someone will reply to this comment:

What do you think about how eBay disallows sellers to leave negative feedback if a buyer gives them a negative? I was thinking about implementing a similar feature, so that if one user gives the other a negative, the other person couldn't retialite giving a negative too?

I've never actually had an instance where that has happened on my forum personally. Usually a member will dissapear after getting money from someone and so they leave a negative, but that member also ususally gets banned from the forum anyhow.

Hi,

I did have it previously running, but when I uninstalled it looks like its left the tables. This is good as I have my data still, however when I run the XML file I get the below error.

Also when I try and do it via the upgrade file, I get an error telling me tables don't exist. Any help is appreciated.

Cheers

Ok... so how do I enabve debug mode? Searches on here, vbulletin.com, looking through the config file, and through vbulletin admincp brought me here... I can't find this anywhere.

Installed and works great, just 1 question:

I would like the trade rating (if they have one) to display under the person title:

example

Cerulean
Title
itrade rank: xyz

I am unsure how to do this any help?

not working for me... i uploaded all the files and upgraded the xml version..but I still get "system closed"...

edit.

I solved the problem... just change the version from 2 to 2.1.0 and it works!

Marco

Hi Jason,

Any thoughts on this?

If it doesn't support this, are there any vBulletin shopping cart solutions you can recommend? I've been looking at Geek Mart but its not available at the moment..
In case it's of any relevance, I will be selling physical products, not downloads...(well not for the foreseeable future anyway)

Best Regards

Callum

I have this working now - wow - super! Geez if it wasn't so early I'd have drinks for everyone!

Ok - here's coffee and the baileys is on the counter.

Thanks to everyone for offering help and insight on this, especially Shazz

same thing happened to me, how did you fix the problem?

i have itrader installed and somebody helped me fixit yesterday because it wasnt showing the feedback score under my members avatars in every post. like it will have (0) under there avatar/username, and when you click that it will take you to where you can submit feedback. it will say submit feedback for this user and you select positive, negative, neutral.

but for some reason, it went away again. its up at the top on the toolbar but some reason it wont show up now.

can anybody help fix this?

tried to install the mod" itrader" but when i import the xml file
it give me this error
Database error in vBulletin 3.7.2:

Invalid SQL:
ALTER TABLE usergroup ADD itraderpermissions int(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL default '0';

MySQL Error : Duplicate column name 'itraderpermissions'
Error Number : 1060

MySQL Version : 4.1.22-standard

anyone can help me out

Thank you for this mod! It works great!

i fixed the problem... i had the 2.0.1 and have 2.1.0 now....mark as installed

thanks

That's not a bad idea, actually. We've had this happen several times, using iTrader like a rep system and then turning to the admins to clean up their mess. I think it's logical addition.

Isn't that an error you'd get when you don't have overwrite ticked?

Any help?

i got it fixed. took me a day and half to figure it out:D

So those of you who are usuing this now, how well does it work, being an interim release I am skeptical.

So i installed this, but nothing shows up. I uploaded everything, but its like nothing is there, no links, no numbers under peoples names, no tabs, no nav link. And yes, it is turned on...

Any help in adding a tab in the users profile, and a link in the UserCP menu?

And I also updated permissions...

My forums would revolt if I could not get the up in the new version.

I put together an auto-insertion hack for those interested. In the next go around you can incorporate it if you wish.

The hack is pretty plain jane, but it avoids me having to edit templates.

It is running right now at www.organicgrocerydeals.com.

Please... I'm becoming crazy also around this.

Can anybody help me?
Which template should i chande and wich code must i use please????

Will this work OK as a fresh install from scratch on 3.7 ? (I haven't used ITrader before)

Guys, that information is included in the ZIP file you downloaded. You have to do it manually.


I don't see why not. That's mainly the purpose of the 3.7 release.

Everything working well ... just as i wanted :p

Thanks for this great Mod

Hi,
i Use it in vb 3.7.2 and the Editor for Comments is not Shown.

None of that works for me. Any other ideas? :(

Thank you for your time and your effort!

cheers m8 installed

Successfully installed, had a problems with the iTrader being disabled many times when trying to upgrade. I then just completely removed it and put it back on :)

Hi,
i deinstall the Addon and reinstall it.
but the Error with the Messagebox is the same?
Have Anyone an Idea?

I'm new to installing hacks. I believe I have installed everything as per the readme file but I don't see how to set user permissions for itrader. Can someone help me out?

Admincp > Usergroup Manager > Select your usergroup and edit it

iTrader permissions should be near the bottom of the page.
