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!!!

Boricua-Racing, 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.

How Can I fix this issue????

Thanks...

You need to go into each usergroup and assign the permissions to view and/or use iTrader.

I'm sure this has been asked, but skimming through 35 pages is a bit much.

I have this set to only show the trader rating in the postbit in certain forums, but after adding a new forum that I'd like to show the rating in, I can't recall how I did it.

If someone could enlighten me, I'd appreciate it.

I have an odd problem:

I recently moved my forums to a new server. Everything is working fine, except that ITrader will not allow anyone access, it always says "The iTrader system is currently closed.". I've double-checked that it is checked "enabled" in the admin CP, and I've tried turning it off, and back on again. Nobody, including admins, can get around this "itrader closed" message. All user groups have permissions set to allow Itrader access.

How can I fix this?

Another question: If I "uninstall" Itrader via the AdminCP (for the purposes of trying to reinstall), will I lose all my itrader data (feedback, scores, etc)?

Nevermind, found this solution earlier in this thread:

I have vbulletin 3.6.1. I'm having trouble getting the iTrader link to show up underneath the username:

username
Title
iTrader ()

Do I still edit the memberlist_resultsbit template? I can get it to show up in the postbit, but not the above. I have read the directions and this thread and can not find my answer. If I am editing the correct template - why is it not being saved after I click on "save and reload?" It does save, but you can not see the changes when looking at the page.

Thanks for any assistance you can provide!!

got it! ty for a great hack!
