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.

In the meantime, i suppose you can just leave the show avatars option as no until i find the fix.

Edit: Hopefully i will be able to release another update tommorow (friday), which will fix that as well as the "invalid user" error that you get while logged out. Besides that it's flawless i believe. However, i do want to get those fixed and plan to do so by tommorow.

I am still somewhat new to vB so I am pretty certain it is regular. It is a recent import from PHPBB2 using Impex if that helps any.

All errors have been fixed. Just overwrite the .xml and files. I do not think there are any bugs left. I spent a while messing with it to check.

Zip Updated With All Fixes

I think the avatars don't show if you have avatars that are separated into different folders, this itrader hack apparently only looks in the root of the avatars folder and not through each folder in there.

Is there any way to have the itrader menu only in the navbar for certain usergroups, any response is greatly appreciated, thanks for this hack.

Try changing navbar template like this:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, [usergroupid1], ..., [usergroupidN])">
...Here is iTrader menu...
</if>

It shows the avatars according to the location listed in the database. So it does www.yoursite.com/location If you installed the newest zip it should work.

I made it so that only members can see it...

I got the avatar problem fixed by re-uploading everything but I still have the problem of the iTrader link on the navbar appearing for all members, even unregistered members. It doesn't give them all the options but it does allow them to browse the members.

Ah yes i gave them that option. I figured why not, it wouldn't hurt. However, if you want to make it so that they can't just:

Change this:

		<!-- iTrader Extension Navbar -->
	<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="itrader_ext_menu" style="display:none">
	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">
	<if condition="$vboptions['itrader_active'] != 1">
		<tr><td class="thead"><a href="ushop.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[itrader]</a></td></tr>	
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option">$vbphrase[itrader] is turned off.</td></tr>
	<else />
		<tr><td class="thead"><a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[itrader] Mainpage</a></td></tr>		
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]do=search">Browse All Members</a></td></tr>
			<if condition="$show['member']"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]do=findcustomer">Find A Customer</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]do=findseller">Find A Seller</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]do=options">Your Options</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader.php?u=$bbuserinfo[userid]">Your $vbphrase[itrader] Profile</a></td></tr></if>
	</if>
	</table>
	</div>
		<!-- End iTrader Extension Navbar -->

To this

		<!-- iTrader Extension Navbar -->
	<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="itrader_ext_menu" style="display:none">
	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">
	<if condition="$vboptions['itrader_active'] != 1">
		<tr><td class="thead"><a href="ushop.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[itrader]</a></td></tr>	
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option">$vbphrase[itrader] is turned off.</td></tr>
	<else />
		<tr><td class="thead"><a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[itrader] Mainpage</a></td></tr>		
   <if condition="$show['member']">
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]do=search">Browse All Members</a></td></tr>
			<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]do=findcustomer">Find A Customer</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]do=findseller">Find A Seller</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader_main.php?$session[sessionurl]do=options">Your Options</a></td></tr>
		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="itrader.php?u=$bbuserinfo[userid]">Your $vbphrase[itrader] Profile</a></td></tr></if>
	</if>
	</table>
	</div>
		<!-- End iTrader Extension Navbar -->

Mode the <if condition="$show['member']"> accordingly to reflect upon what you do not want to show.

Wow, this looks great!
One suggestion...

Many forums with trading allow users to create a single trade list in the form of a thread. I like what you have done with the "wants to buy, wants to sell", but I think you might want to consider adding a place for users to display a link to their main trade list.

Nice work!

Sounds like a nice idea. Perhaps you can elaborate more on this via PM?
