Description of the Hack:
This will provide your vB community with a business directory.

This version is not time limited in anyway and there is no obligation to upgrade to the full version.

I originally stated that I would not release any of my hacks here, however due to popular demand I decided to change my mind and put together a txt documentation so it can be released here.

This version is:

1) be FREE and not time limited in any way without any obligation to upgrade to the full version.

2) only support business directories, hence auctions or classifieds listings will not be available.

3) not include "Buy Now"/"Pay Me Now" buttons.

4) not include paypal intergration.

ZIP UPDATES:
23/3/04
HTL users only: Unfortunatly I just realised that I didnt add the VB Trader FAQ's that are added to your forum FAQ's. This is now fixed in the ZIP and for those who have already installed the VB Trader I will put together an addon pack for you.

FIX REPUTATION ISSUE
open vbt_showlistings
find

PHP Code:

fetch_reputation_image($seller); 


and replace with

PHP Code:

$userperms = cache_permissions($seller[id], false);
fetch_reputation_image($seller, $userperms);

ok, i'm starting to get a little peeved off... I've been searching for this hack for the past two weeks. I've sent numberous emails and made many posts. I really want this hack, but the aithor is no where to be found and I cant' fid where to download the full version.

For the love of God does anyone know where to find/purchase/download this hack at?

I really want this hack, but the aithor is no where to be found and I cant' fid where to download the full version.

Wouldn't be the first time this hack author has disappeared...

This is the supposed new site for official vbtrader support (it changes every couple of months it seems) but it doesn't look like it is getting any attention at all

http://www.ozezyhosting.com/network/

If you somehow can manage to buy the full version, my experience suggests "buyer beware".

Good luck.

My God my typing was bad when I posted that... lol, I was slightly pissed off and not paying attention. My appologies.

Aye, I've checked his "Official Support" forums, but nothing there just one post from someone asking the same thing. I've emailed him several times and posted at everythingvb.com as well and still nada, nothing, zip, zilch, zero. Tis sad to see such a good looking hack go down the drain... Its definately on my "buyer beware" list now. Unfortunatley, I'm still looking for it or something very much like it.

I'm beginning to wonder if this is the same guy that owns/owned vbskins.com....

[Bryan Ex]

Has anyone been able to get the search to work for this? All I've got is a blank screen for vbt_search.php.

[Regs]

Hey Bryan,

That feature was never completed... it's not you, it's the script.

Cheers,

~Regs.

[Bryan Ex]

Ya... I was just kinda hoping that someone else may have worked out that last part with the search function. It's a slick addition to a new site I'm working on but without the search working it's kinda like picking up your new Harley... with no gas money in your jeans. :ermm:

[[H]Dazz]

The author responded to my thread over on his "official support" forums... Unfortunately, I've not heard from him since then.

[Bryan Ex]

Trafix has posted to his forum for the first time in ages yesterday stating that he is back and picking up where he left off (after replacing his computer). Credibility has been severely damaged but if he can crank out some updates in a hurry it would go a long way with many people.

There is competition right around the corner and it will be supported. It's first incarnation will go live with my community in approximately 2 weeks. I got sick and tired of waiting so I spent the money.

I'll keep my site updated with it's progress.

Competition is always a good thing (except according to Microsoft...lol).
