Seems to work fine on my vb 307

hi guys

one very small problem, when i click to got o the traders ratings on my default skin it works perfect but my second skin it just shows a white blank page, any ideas?

many thanks

dean

you need to add the template changes to your other style...

I have a few questions:

Once installed, can I change the settings in the traderratings.php file. I want to change the time limit allowed for editing the ratings.

If it is possible, how can I set the editing time to 90 days. Is it still in seconds? (90 days X 24 hours X 60 mins X 60 sec)

Do I need to reinstall to change the setting. I have already installed.

Also, I have read through most of the pages and still not sure about the following issue. From what I understand ONE unique user can give 10 feedbacks but they will only count for 1 point in rating. Now my question is which point will be taken. A person can rate "positive" in one feedback transaction and "negative" in another.. You know what I mean? what if in 10 feedbacks 6 is positive and 4 is negative. Will the script count any of those? or is it going to only count the first one? I am very confused.

ive done the template edits on both :ermm:

Is there a way that I can have the Trader Rating notification private message contain a link back to the sender's Trader Rating page?

Thanks again for the awesome hack!

The actual message is stored in the phrase: tratings_pm_message.

You could have that passed a parameter and return it as part of the phrase, but I think it's probably easier to add it manually.

The last code in traderratings.php is the function for sending the pm. You can easily see what details are being used as far as the username/userid etc are concerned, so it's easy to add the url into $message before it's sent.

If you want the url in the middle of the message, or don't want to hard code the message so it's easy to change in future or translate, you can use a particular unique word in the phrase in place of the userid and then replace it with a string function before inserting the pm.

Hmm...sounds a bit over my head, but thanks!

In the template.txt file provided with the installation zip file it says the following:

Quote:

NOTE: If you only want specific user groups to use the ratings, you will also need to modify the traderratings.php code to prevent users from getting to the feedback page through manual URLs (unlikely, but possible). This feature will be fully implemented in the next version (if you don't want to modify the php file).

Can anyone here tell us the what code in the php file to modify. I have done the template modification to not allow certain user groups but i want to make it full proof so that none can use the ratings system via manually going to the trader ratings pages (all pages in TR).

I would appreciate if someone here gives me the actual code to reflect the change.

Would it be possible to make a small module for vbadvanced that shows like the top 5 rated members or something?
