Description:
??????????????????????????????????
Trader Ratings has evolved from my vB2 Buy/Sell/Trade User Rating System. 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 based on the honor system since there is no way to truly tell if they did engage in a transaction. (But I'm working on a way to fix that.) Trader Ratings 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 Buyer, Seller, or Trade
? Leave comments about the deal
? Records date when rating created
? Specify a URL to the deal
? 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)
? Admins & Mods can edit/delete anyone's ratings (just incase)
? Stats page showing best & worst rated members, and recent ratings
? PM notification when a person is rated

Basic Info:
??????????????????????????????????
I haven't written a FAQ or any real documentation yet, but the way the system works is very simple. The only part that might confuse someone is that the Feedback Score is based only on UNIQUE members. Also, there are simple checks in place to make sure they actually do select proper info and enter a comment. A user is not able to rate themself (obviously). Permissions for viewing / rating are similar to standard forum viewing / posting permissions. Also it checks to make sure users exist and all that good stuff.

Installation Info:
??????????????????????????????????
This hack is very simply to implement requiring only:
? 1 new file
? 5 new templates / 2-3 template changes (navbar, posbit/postbit_legacy, MEMBERINFO, memberlist_resultsbit)
? 52 new phrases
? 1 new DB table / 1 table DB change & index

An install/upgrade PHP file is included to do all the template/phrase/DB stuff, so basically you run that, upload the file, and edit your postbit template. BAM!

Screen Shots / Demos:
??????????????????????????????????
See Screenshots below, or you can view them on my forums: My Trader Rating Page

Plans For Future Releases:
??????????????????????????????????
? rebuttal / followup comments
? item description (possibly instead of thread url)
? button on thread that buyer/seller clicks to tie the transaction to two people

This is exactly what I need/have been looking for. I am excited for the new version release and patiently await it. Hope all is going well with you and the coding.

Been working all day long on this... Was having some trouble with the function that reports suspicious activity, but got it all working now.

Permission checks look to all be working properly, and some of the more common errors have their own phrases so the person knows what they are doing wrong.

The only thing left to do now pretty much is the comment detail page, (as I was planning on doing a couple days ago). Just have to add some HTML at the top to show both rating details, add ability to add / edit comments. Then I need to fix some of the logic structure for the Options images that link to adding/editing/reporting/etc. I know it doesn't sound like much, but I'm sure it is at least another full day's work.

In the interest of time I'm going to skip the "link rating" page with the initial release so people can get this implemented / upgraded and working on their forum.

I'm excited too. The timing is perfect -- I came here about a week ago looking to implement a feature like this for our site. I'll be donating a little once I get paid

Okay, I can say with 100% certainty that I will be releasing the 3.5.1 version tomorrow (Saturday).

Only have a couple little details to finish on the detail / comment page and fix some phrases & permissions.

I'm planning on loading this on my forum later today so that I let my people give it a quick test to make sure I didn't miss anything. Then hopefully tomorrow I can package it all up with some documentation and make the first official release.

I'm guessing this will work okay with 3.5.2 as well? I just upgraded my forum to the new version yesterday and all the other mods I have installed worked.

Suggestion for a future release (from a member):

"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."
