Description:
iTrader for vB 3.5.x & 3.6.x has evolved from Trader Ratings for vB 3.0.x which evolved from Buy/Sell/Trade User Rating System for vB 2.x. This is a rating system for when members buy / sell / trade items from each other (presumably on a FS section of your forum). It is somewhat based on the honor system since there is no automatic way to truly tell if they did engage in a transaction. iTrader came about because it was a pain to try and maintain a single thread listing good / bad traders and so far has worked out quite well.

Features:

• Rate another member: Positive / Negative / Neutral
• Specify in each transaction: Buyer, Seller, or Trade
• Leave multiple comments about the deal
• Dates & IPs are all recorded to prevent abuse
• Specify a thread URL to the deal
• Advanced URL checking
• Display ratings over time
• Filter based on Buyer/Seller/Trade/or feedback they left for others
• Users can edit/delete ratings left for others (time based limitation)
• iTrader Admins can edit/delete anyone's ratings (just incase)
• PM notification when new rating or comment is left
• Per-usergroup permissions
• Lots of admin controllable options

Installation / Upgrade Info:
Read the included readme file, it explains everything.

Standard Disclaimer:
BACKUP YOUR DATABASE & FILES BEFORE IMPLEMENTING THIS HACK!!!

Donations:

Future Additions:

• AdminCP & ModCP Menus for searching IPs, stats, mass-prune, etc

• AdminCP Option to choose how ratings are ordered (asc or desc by time)

i have a problem like this , after i submit a feedback, i see an error, however , it redirect to itrade page, here is the error

Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #1 is not an array in /itrader_feedback.php on line 243

also i test all feedback , the percentage count incorrectly, if i post negative feedback more , will only list 50% ,for example 4 negative feedback, 3 postive feedback, should 42% , why always 50%

Have installed mine with no problems as of yet. Will need to continue test drive to see if anything comes up. This is a fantastic thing you got going here. Thank you very much. REALLY appreciate all the hard work you've put into this. It is what our forum has been needing for quite some time.

I'd like to try and mess with it to see if I can get different icons for the amount of (good) trades. If anyone has figured that out and would like to share, that would be great. If I figure it out I'll pass on the info.

Are you any closer to releasing a better Template documentation for the hack?
One of the places i've implemented it so far is in the popup menu for a username. Underneath the Homepage, Send X a Private message etc.

<!-- iTrader -->
	<tr><td class="thead">Trading</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader_feedback.php?u=$post[userid]" rel="nofollow">Leave Trade Feedback!</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader.php?u=$post[userid]" rel="nofollow">View Trade History</a></td></tr>
<!-- /iTrader -->

Is there a better way to code this?

Thanks Jason. Installed and upgraded without problems.

Jason,

Is there a reason that the "short comment" field is limited to 80 characters? (re: formatting maybe?). Any possibility to make the character limit admin configurable for those that would like to allow larger "visible to all users" ratings?

Thanks

sellbuydomain - Ah, minor bug, I'll release a file update in about an hour once I get to the office. All that will be needed is to re-upload a couple files, no other modifications needed.

The reason it would still be 50% is because calculations are done based on UNIQUE userids. Unless you change the option in the admincp to non-unique.

d2sector - I'll try to write up some more documentation today, I meant to yesterday but did not get a chance. Really template implementation is a user-preference on exactly where and how they want to do it.

Attention:

To fix a small glitch in the code I've updated the zip file. If you already upgraded to 2.0.1 then simply re-upload the following two files that have been fixed.

• itrader_feedback.php
• itrader_detail.php

Upgraded from 2.0.0 to 2.0.1

Thanks and keep up the great work!!
