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.

Ah, leaking like a sieve is it? I just have a small little place with about 1700 members doing about 250 to 300 posts a day. Not open to the general public.

Ok everyone, I think I tracked down the issue... Basically it would appear the default code is calling an array that deals with the specific user (i.e. who you are logged in as) rather than the user you are looking up info on. That's why it works if you view your own auctions but not if you view them as another member who doesn't have any auctions setup.

Open up ebay_hack.xml and scroll down until you reach the member_complete hook. Look for the line:

if ($vbulletin->userinfo['field38'])

And change it to:

if ($userinfo['field38'])

Save the file and upload it.

Alternatively, if you already have this plugin installed, go to your plugin manager, locate the plugin "Ebay - Member - Bit" and make the same one line modification I just described there instead.

Hopefully that does the trick for everyone until the coder has a minute to come back and fix this up himself.

the snipet creator link does not work and when i try to connect to the ebay link i have set in my profile it sends me to a page on my site with the link to my ebay auction. no hyperlink just the text of the url. is there a way to fix this issue? ive been trying to get this link to work but no go.

never mind i got it to work. instead of a link in your profile just put your login name and change the field in the snipet code and your good to go. if anyone needs help ill be here

Why is it that only admins can see the link in the postbit?
