eBay Integration Mod

This extension allows users to enter their eBay username, and will then have a link in postbit that will show all the users current eBay Auctions.

Does require a couple of template edits, and edit of a file (not native to vB).

Based off of the idea and hack from 3.0.x which can be seen: here.


1.0.1 Updated XML to parse two templates, saving two queries (thanks to Zachariah).

1.0.0 Initial Release


*To Update*
Reupload all files, Re-import product, making sure to allow overwrite.
-- Make sure you replace fieldx with your field# in the XML before updating.

Is this also due to the delay mentioned above?

If this is what you are referring to, when you have it in there unmodified (not sure how you modified it), there should be a search box rather than auctions showing if that member has no auctions. If you go to my site, find a post I made and click on the ebay logo, you'll see what I mean.

Also, don't forget your field values (I know I forgot a couple times while redoing the hack).

Correct, this is what I was referring to. No search box, just that message in red bold letters.

Yes my field values are correct. I just combed through them again.

Here is what is in my MEMBERINFO template:

<fieldset class="fieldset">
			 <legend>$vbphrase[miscellaneous]</legend>
			 <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="$stylevar[formspacer]" border="0">
				 <if condition="$post['field20']"><a href="member.php?&do=memberauctions&userid=$post[userid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/ebay.gif" alt="$post[username]'s eBay Auctions" border="0" /></a>
					</if>
				</table>
			</fieldset>

This is in my postbit:

<if condition="$post['field20']"><a href="member.php?&do=memberauctions&userid=$post[userid]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/ebay.gif" alt="$post[username]'s eBay Auctions" border="0" /></a></if>

And this is in my ebay_member:

<script language="JavaScript" src="http://lapi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?EKServer&amp;ai=fwjl%7dyvyrwv%7dk&amp;bdrcolor=000000&amp;cid=0&amp;eksize=5&amp;encode=ISO-8859-1&amp;endcolor=FF0000&amp;endtime=y&amp;fbgcolor=8CAA6E&amp;fntcolor=000000&amp;fs=0&amp;hdrcolor=8CAA6E&amp;hdrimage=1&amp;hdrsrch=n&amp;img=y&amp;lnkcolor=000000&amp;logo=3&amp;num=25&amp;numbid=y&amp;paypal=n&amp;popup=y&amp;prvd=0&amp;r0=4&amp;shipcost=n&amp;siteid=0&si=$userinfo[field20]&amp;sort=MetaEndSort&amp;sortby=endtime&amp;sortdir=asc&amp;srchdesc=n&amp;tbgcolor=F5F5FF&amp;tlecolor=FFCE63&amp;tlefs=0&amp;tlfcolor=000000&amp;track=&amp;width=570"></script>

Same here, just red bold letters stating "This member has not given their Ebay ID"

And I have triple checked everything. It did work now it has stopped working.

[nine45]

I don't know if this helps anyone to debug this but here goes, I entered my Ebay UserID into my profile and hey presto I can see my forum members auctions, then I took out my userID in my userCP, and guess what...the red wording about members iD's again, went back to my userCP entered my Ebay ID and then I could see my forums members auctions....me thinks there is a connection there.

[jellybaby]

I have the same problem. If I take my userID out of my profile then I get "This member has not given their Ebay ID". However, if I take my name out of my profile I get a box with an ad (even on those that I know have live auctions!)

[xtreme-mobile]

ive had to uninstal this

[jellybaby]

Has anyone got this working properly?

[silurius]

Sounds like it was working in some cases, but a bug managed to surface just when Creed stepped away from vB stuff for a while. I assume he'll be back shortly.
