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!!!

Future Additions:

Possibly a bug or maybe an oversight ...

The problem is that when you go to the rating summary to view the actual rating comments the Rating Summary is a link to the original thread (which is all cool) but it is not obvious .. Is it possible to change it so that there is a obvious link to the actual thread that the rating is for??

Does this make sense ??

I get an error message when I try to log on to my feedback itrader page.

vBulletin Message

(name edited out), you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

I am admin so where do I change this setting so that I can get iTrader up?
It is under my vbulletin options, itrader settings. Everything looks good. BUT I cannot see it under "Contact Info" either.

HELP!

Love the mod, but I wonder if theres a way to mass add feedback? From other sites (communities). I setup an account to add feedback, but I have to do it one comment at a time, one user at a time.. any thoughts on an import tool?

Edit: so Ive figured out how to add via phpMyAdmin, but there has to be an easier way to plug in all the data and have it import (ie: so new users can import their own feedback w/out my assistance, because as it grows, I really dont want to be importing users feedback..)

Im probably not making any sense, and I may just need to get my brain switched back to programming mode and figure it out myself, lol.

Ok, I have the itrader and the feedback rating showing on posts next to the person's screen name, however I don't know how to change the usergroup permissions to allow me to view the actual page when I click on the feedback rating. I know it said in the readme that it was defaulted to "no access" but I am not sure where to change it. Do I do that in a php file and re-ftp it or do I do that from board admin.?. Can someone point me in the right direction?

You change the user permissions in your VB AdminCP under... usergroups

When youre editing the permissions, you'll see something about iTrader at the bottom.

(PS: all of this is in the readme)

Thanks,
The readme file just said, "Edit all the usergroup permissions (all groups default to no access).

I see it now as I had to go to UserGroup and then I had to set up a usergroup called iTrader. Then I had to set the permission and add users to the group. When I did that and joined the group, it worked...

I GOT IT!!! I am so excited, you have NO idea. :banana:
