Profile Enhancements - iTrader 2.1.0 (Interim Release)

To hold people over until I get the full updated version with new features released, I'm posting this Interim version that has been tested / updated for vBulletin 3.7.x

There are no new features in this release, it is simply compatability updates and minor bug fixes. There are changes to both files & templates, but no changes to the iTrader tables.

Description:
iTrader for vBulletin 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:

iTrader is up and running in our forum, permissions look fine, database looks fine, but the little itrader clickable number is not showing up next to usernames in threads.

We recently had to roll back our header, header include and footer to an earlier version to do some troubleshooting. Was there any itrader code in those sections that we have to reinstall?

Is there any way that someone could explain to me (in laymans terms) what I need to do with the template and permissions? I have read through this and read the read me files and template info that I downloaded and I am still so lost.

I need a step by step I guess.

Thanks.

The two little blocks of code in the ReadMe file are for your Navbar and Postbit respectively, just add them anywhere in the templates you use for those parts of your forum. If you've never done template edits before, there's a reference guide in the Articles section that you'll find useful.

ok i read all 17 pages, and didnt find an answer I may have missed it, but i dont think i did

Dave01978, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Any Ideas?

Did you set your Usergroup permissions? They're not set by default.

Unfortunately I think I am still lost. I still dont see anything under usergroup permissions and nothiing comes up when I added the text to the templates. It shows up inder product manager as installed.

What am I doing wrong?

Check to make sure all your files were properly and completely uploaded.

Please forgive my ignorance (no really lol) but how would one go about doing that?

Just by re-uploading them.
