What does this do?
This hack extends the capabilities of iTrader a great deal. For starters, it supplies a mainpage where you can view recent
ratings, highest rated members, lowest rated members, stats in general, and more. It also supplies a page where you can view
all members and their itrader stats. One of the best features this gives is the ability for people to show what they are selling
and what they are buying at the moment. Using these set fields, users can then click a "find a customer" link, or a "find a seller"
link that will bring up a perfect match for them.

What does this hack add to the functionability of iTrader?

• Mainpage - Which includes the following
  • iTrader stats for site in general
  • Recent Ratings
  • Top Traders
  • Hall of shame (lowest rated traders)
• A search where you can see all traders and some stats/info
• The ability for users to have an option for "What they want to buy" and "What they are selling", which allows for the following:
  • A page where they can edit these fields.
  • A "Find A Customer" page that matches what they are selling with what someone is buying
  • A "Find A Seller" pahe that matches what they are buying with what someone is selling.

For future referance, this will happen with any hack you install. By default, everything added to the navbar has that arrow. If you run into this problem with any hacks, just add the ,1.

[kellyandmike]

I just added the mainpage to my navbar template. The "tab" is there, on my profile page, but just the little arrow is there on the others. From my profile page, I keep getting errors on 5 out of the 6 drop down options, and am thinking I didn't upload the files in the upload folder to the right destination. If you would like to take a peek it's at www.couponchix.com/feedback/index.php

There are three things in the upload folder:
1. an images folder (uploaded this to my database, images, avatars folder)
2. an includes folder (uploaded the file functions_itrader_main.php to my database uploads folder)
3. itrader_main.php file (uploaded this to my database folder)

I made the changes to my navbar template. I uploaded the 3 things in the upload folder as described above. Can someone tell me where to move the files so I don't get that error?

This is the error I get:

Database error in vBulletin 3.5.4:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT user.userid, user.username, user.itrader_total, user.itrader_pcnt, user.itrader_buy, user.itrader_sell, user.joindate

Just made a small donation. It's not much, but I guess if everyone here did, it would make it worth your time and effort.

I LOVE iTrader, and in fact, it is the ONLY reason I subscribed for vBulletin!
Having little minor problems, but once I get them worked out (I am a newb), then it'll be SUPER!

Thank you for your kind donation. May i ask if you made sure to upload the product? It seems to me that the query to add that column to the table just wasn't ran. This query is ran via uploading the product. Therefore, i am guessing that you forgot to do that

Ok, call me a ditz. Where do I put that xml file? Which folder? Please help. I put it in the xml folder and on the database folder, which in this case is called "feedback".

HELP! :cross-eyed:

[kellyandmike]

Could someone please help me. I have made the changes to my templates. I have uploaded the files to my server in the various folders. I think my last step is to "Step 1. Import the following product: product-itrader_extension.xml"

Is this done in my admin panel -Style Manager-Download/Upload Styles?
Whenever trying to import the xml file, I get an error that says it is not a valid file.

Help Import Style XML File
EITHER upload the XML file from your computer
OR import the XML file from your server

Merge Into Style
(Selecting a style here will cause the imported style to be merged into an existing style, overwriting any conflicting entries. Leave blank to create a new style) (Create New Style) -- Default Style -- iTrader

Ignore Style Version
Use style file even if it was created by a different version of vBulletin? Yes No

The following options apply only if you are creating a new style, rather than overwriting an existing style
Title for Uploaded Style
(Leave blank to use the style title specified in the style file)

Parent Style No Parent Style -- Default Style -- iTrader

Display Order

Allow User Selection Yes No

You need to go to the admincp---plugin system---manage products--upload it there. This is where you upload all the .xml files for products.

BTW--this addon to Itrader absolutely rocks! Thanks

[kellyandmike]

Ok, if I already edited the templates, will I have to edit them again since I went out of order on the steps?

Here are the steps:

Step 1. Import the following product: product-itrader_extension.xml
Step 2. Upload the files in the upload folder.
Step 3. Do the edits located below

I uploaded the files by ftping them Is that okay?

[akoj]

You should be fine to just upload the .xml. There is no need to re edit templates. Yes, FTP the other files...You can check it out on the afullcup link in my sig.
