I'm thankful that you converted this to 3.5 and am EXTREMELY grateful for this add-on, but I am hoping you will reconsider the untimely death of the "home page".

I think that page is relevant for the following reasons:

1) The Recent Ratings Column helps the community police each other as any unusual activity will be easily spotted there.

2) The Top Rated Traders is good fun for the users who can compete for bragging rights about being the most prolific/best trader.

3) The usefullness of the Wall of Shame is pretty obvious.

4) The Rating Statistics show how active the trading community is on your site.

I have been holding out on upgrading to vB 3.5 as I was waiting for this upgrade...say it ain't so, Joe (er, Jason)!

Installed it on my test server.. works perfectly

Is anyone else getting this message when trying to submt feedback?

It is ten characters or more :ermm:

Ahhh, I see that additional comments are required. How can we make them optional?

Here is a suggestion for a future upgrade:

"If it's possible, how 'add a column for the value of the deal.

$0-$25
$25-$50
$50-$100
$100-$500
Over $500

Or even "Low", "Mid", "High-End". That way people can see how many big transactions someone had before making a deal. Someone won't have 10 feedbacks of $1 trades and then screw someone out of a $500 trade."

A couple things...

First GREAT hack - loved for 3.0 and love it more for 3.5

Second - Making the 'Additional Comments' optional is something I would like to see. Many members might not like the fact they have to input the url (i made it required) then also post additional comments.

Third - wether or not you use the ebay style for points the trader rating always shows the unique number of comments...for example I have 71 Positive Feedbacks with 38 being unique. I hve mine setup to NOT use the ebay style so I would like the 71 to show as the clickable link instead of 38.

yea i agree, that whole additional comments thing is a waste to me, and annoance, would be nice to be able to make it not even be there at all (admincp option)

past that tho great hack!

definatly has my vote for HOTM

Firstoff, eoc_Jason thank you so much for this. It has installed and seems to be working great! Yes it would be nice the suggestions above, but I'm just happy to have something like this for my B/S/T site. This is so great, and I thank you so much! When I get paid next (first week in January) I will donate 25.00 to you. I know it's not a heckuva lot, and all honesty this mod is worth WELL more than that, but unfortunately disability out-right sucks for an income, so that's about the best I can do. I just hope others show their appreciation as well (and don't let those few "+++++ers" get to you. I KNOW The people thankful for what you have produced WELL outweighs the people who "expect" your free services and "expect" you to use every ounce of non-working life working on this, and expect you to not run into any "bumps in the road" and release it YESTERDAY.

I also was a bit curious about this "Trader Ratings" modification you will be creating in the future. Will this at all be compatible with "iTrader" or will there be a way to intermesh the two?

And another question. Is there any chance that the ability to use "Trader Ratings" with other board styles, such as phpBB? Or at least somebody (that knows what they are doing) to write a code compatible to "Trader Ratings"?

Again, thank you *SO* much for "iTrader". It really helps complete my forums!!!

ok, think i found a bug, one you may be aware of not sure

if a users has it set not to receive PM's in their user cp option there is an error if someone leaves them feedback

it will leave the ffedback after the error but will not update the feedback if you view it in postbit, memberinfo, etc it will still show (0)

can anyone confirm this? i tried it with 2 testuser accounts in various usergroups and get the same thing and with one live user, he brought it to my attention and the PM setting was the only thing different

Confirmed. I get the exact same error. It pulls up a completely blank page except the text as posted in dsotmoon's post (ps cool name DS) and it's the same line 758.

Hope this helps!
