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.

There is still a lot of things to do, but right now the core stuff works. The admin pages will end up containing some stats stuff, IP search, etc...

Thanks Jason. I was just a bit confused but you're right.

Really really great work.

Thanks, Jason.
I clicked 'Begin Data Conversion' to upgrade and the browser timed out.
Reluctant to click it again.
What now?

[Edit - 21476 rows in the user_rate_trade table and 1923 rows in the itrader table]
[Edit 2 : If you want me to run this manually, will this SQL statement work? (I don't have any table prefix)?

INSERT INTO itrader (userid, rateduserid, rating, buyselltrade, subject, dealurl, dateline) SELECT userid, rateduser, userrating, userbuysell, usercomments, userurl, userdate from user_rate_trade

Hello. I have 3.5, and i'm doing a fresh install of this hack. I've done all the uploads and plugins. I'm a bit stumped on the tempelate part though. Please consider I am a noob at this, and I beleive your explenation is a little too advanced for me to comprehend. Can you please assist me so I can finish this install? Thank you.
