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!!!

Future Additions:

• AdminCP & ModCP Menus for searching IPs, stats, mass-prune, etc

• AdminCP Option to choose how ratings are ordered (asc or desc by time)
• AJAX editing

Need some assiatance on one issue with deleting a member. I have a deleted member who had feedback... this is how they show since being deleted. Where do I go to remove the area.... so they do not show as Blank ... see bottom left of image below.



Thanks for any help.

Hi there Guys,
Great hack! One question I do have after reading the 38 pages

I have a for sale section on my site which I have setup a promotion after 3 months or 20 posts to prevent people from just off loading stuff and never returning.

I have added the appropriate information into the postbit template and wondering whether it's possible to exclude certain usergroups from having the itrader rating until they are promoted?

At present it shows up whether or not they have access to the for sale section.

Any help would be great.

Cheers

Under

PHP Code:

<!-- Trader Ratings --> 


Try changing

PHP Code:

<if condition="$post['userid']"> 


to

PHP Code:

<if condition="$post['userid'] AND in_array($post[usergroupid], array(x,y,x))"> 


Where x,y and z are the usergroup ids you wish to show the trader rating for.

Understand I haven't tested this, I just figured it out for you. And I don't consider myself a coder any more, so it may not work. But it's worth a try.

Spinball just letting you know that worked absolutely perfectly, thanks a mint!

[VBUsers]

installed and thanks you

[elsonar]

thanks!

Asked elsewhere but I might as well try here - I just installed photopost classifieds and would like to use iTrader instead of their built in feedback system.... any help on how to modify the profile page to show itrader info?

This is seriously one of the best plugins available for vBulletin. Without this plugin, I don't think vBulletin would have gotten as far is it has. Keep up the great work, and thank you so much for this!<3
