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!!!

Donations:
This add-on will always be free, however your donations are kindly accepted and will help towards further development. The link is on the right under "The Developer" info.

Future Additions:

• AdminCP & ModCP Menus for searching IPs, stats, mass-prune, etc
• Better navigation across pages
• Better error descriptions
• Adjust action icons some
• Page to link two ratings manually
• AdminCP Option to choose how ratings are ordered (asc or desc by time)
• AJAX editing

Release History:
2.0.1 - December 18, 2005
2.0.0 - December 14, 2005

Is there a way to make the iTrader rating show in the memberlist? So all I have to do is click memberlist and I see the members and their ratings?

[dethfire]

if (($foruminfo[forumid] == 138) AND ($userinfo[itrader_total] < 50))
{

print_no_permission();

}

any ideas why this doesn't work?

[tspore]

How do I remove the reply option on the comments box?
I don't want people to be able to use this feature.
So then they can't get into fights over the transactions.

Jason, I checked this on your forums and you have the same issue there. At a quick glance it might look like it is working properly, but it is definitely not.

If you select to view feedback from "From Buyers - From Sellers - From Trades - Left for Others". and then click on a page number to view, it will take you to the "All Feedback Received" section, no matter which of the above sections you have selected. It will take you to the proper page number, but it will be in "All Feedback Received" section, not the section that you actually selected.

For a quick example, check this guy's "Left for Others" feedback and then click on page #2
http://forums.extremeoverclocking.com/itrader.php?u=2416
You will notice that you are now looking at page #2 of his "All Feedback Received" section.

I installed this to take a look at it and noticed the same issue with pagination.

It looks like an easy fix. If you notice in the URL, it should be something like this:
itrader.php?u=4&iv=3&page=2&pp=15

On the pages where the error occurs, the url looks like this:
itrader.php?u=4&v=3&page=2&pp=15

Notice the missing "i" in "iv=3".

To fix this, open itrader.php and on line 124 replace this:

	$pagenav = construct_page_nav($viewuser['pagenumber'], $viewuser['perpage'], $countposts['total'], "itrader.php?" . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "u=" . $userinfo['userid'] . ($viewuser['viewtype'] ? "&v=" . $viewuser['viewtype'] : ''),(!empty($viewuser['perpage']) ? "&pp=" . $viewuser['perpage'] : ""));

with this:

	$pagenav = construct_page_nav($viewuser['pagenumber'], $viewuser['perpage'], $countposts['total'], "itrader.php?" . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "u=" . $userinfo['userid'] . ($viewuser['viewtype'] ? "&iv=" . $viewuser['viewtype'] : ''),(!empty($viewuser['perpage']) ? "&pp=" . $viewuser['perpage'] : ""));

That fixed it for me. Hope it helps.

How do I as admin, modify a rating left by a registered user? I want to specifically modify a neutral to a positive after a user clicked the wrong rating. Does any one have a good admin user description?

Thanks!

I have this installed in test. Feedback from my trading mods is focused on this issue with the eBay style rating totals:

Trader "Ditto" gets a positive rating from trader "Ash": Ditto - 1, 100%
Trader "Ditto" gets a positive rating from trader "Marina": Ditto - 2, 100%
Trader "Ditto" gets a negative rating from trader "Marina": Ditto - 1, 67%
Trader "Ditto" gets another negative rating from trader "Marina": Ditto - 1, 67%

So, it looks like the eBay style is counting the latest unique vote for ratings for the 'number of positive feedback' - we like that.

However, it looks like the eBay style is counting the latest unique negative and latest unique positive ratings for 'percentage of positive ratings'. We don't like that so much, we'd like to see Ditto's rating at 50% after the above ratings.

Assuming this isn't a bug, would Jason or someone give me a hint as to where in the code to change the calc to adjust the % to include only the latest vote from each unique trader?

Thanks EOC_Jason for sharing this great system. I know its a lot of work to code & package & support stuff for use off one's own site. You're a stud.

I have a strange problem:
After moving from one server and domain to a new machine and domain, my iTrader system keeps saying, it is closed.
But it IS enabled in my vBulletin iTrader settings, and it even shows to me as an admin as closed.

I'm running out of ideas, why the system refuses to be re-activated... :surprised:

I am having this very problem. Help?

Thanks Khurt! It works!

[raygunz]

I just have to say thank you Jason.

I've uploaded the files and it's working great.

I know I missed something because in the admincp when I go to iTrader Tools> Update iTrader Scores I receive a blank page.

Does anyone know what file I didn't upload, and where does it go?

Just when I thought I had it all.

Thanks.
