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.

While uploading and configuring the itrader hack/s I am receiving this script error below when trying to leave FEEDBACK for customer.

Script or Action BlockedThe requested URL /forums/itrader_feedback.php?u=2 contains a script or action that has has been deteremined unsafe. It has been disabled to prevent abuse.

This is a result of a PHP program on my server that haults scripts that may be email or webmail based. There's no way around this. Because one of the PHP files is named "leave_feedback".php it's the "feedback" namethat's causing this error (444).

Where and what should I do to allow this script to run without any probs?
Can it be a simple as changing the this files name......if so, please list all the php files/extentions I need to change to match........OR is there a way to change the "extention=php" to run in another computer language?

Please advice.
Thankyou!

I too have a custom skin, so I had to put the one edit in my header instead of navbar.

But I had to fool with it to get it straight but I dont think I have it right.

I replaced my calendar button with the itrader button in my navbar.

So I replaced this:
<a href="calendar.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a><img src="images/hexcell/header/navdiv.gif" alt="navdiv" class="navdiv" />

with this:
<a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[itrader]</a><img src="images/hexcell/header/navdiv.gif" alt="navdiv" class="navdiv" />

But it was supposed to be this:
<!-- iTrader Extension Navbar -->
<if condition="$show['popups']">
<td id="itrader_ext" class="vbmenu_control"><a href="#itrader_ext">$vbphrase[itrader]</a><script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("itrader_ext");</script></td>
<else />
<td id="itrader_ext" class="vbmenu_control"><a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[itrader]</a></td>
</if>
<!-- End iTrader Extension Navbar -->

So did I do it right ot am I way off??? Cuz I dont get the drop menu thing when you click the itrader button in my navbar.

Also, My board is newer so i only have 568 posts.
But, when viewing someones user rating it says:
"568 Total Feedback Received By "user""
When it should be zero.

It is saying the total feeback is the same as the total posts.

please help.

I accidentally deleted the iTrader in the postbit part of my forum, and my members would like it to be put back. I'm not sure how to do this. If you can help, I'd REALLY appreciate it!

Thanks so much!

edited to add: I fixed it, I used this code if anyone else has the problem. I changed it in the postbit:

<a href="itrader.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$post[userid]">$post[itrader_total]</a>

Hi! I'm having some issues putting the iTrade dropdown on my navbar...

For some reason, it's show up like it should, except there's no background like the rest of the buttons. Do you have a possible diagnosis?

Here's some more info;

The current template I have, stores the navbar info in the headerpostbit

Here's my header, with your script bolded;

Here's my forum homepage;

As you can see, it works, but the visuals are messed up. A diagnosis would surely make my day!

[Trana]

Try changing the <TD> class to whatever class you are using for the other menu options.

[BiReL41r]

Ah! I got it. I had to take out

class="vbmenu_control"

[chinch]

has anyone tried this with vB 3.6 release candidates?

i'd like to upgrade to that but iTrader is mandatory

I've not installed this..yet, however, iTrader is working fine on 3.6 RC3

[chinch]

thanks for the info!

[chinch]

installed on 3.6.0

i have a comment regarding usability (ease of use).

the SEARCH links you to the forum profile, not iTrader profile.

is there a way to have the iTrader profile appear as a link from member profiles?

otherwise searching is very confusing. i expect to get alot of "how do i add trader ratings" inquiries.
