I have this used on a huge forum.... and we have no issues with any of that. If any user abuses the system, they get banned. So far, no one has tested our resolve and they have all followed the written rules.
(it's always better to get buyin form the users than to try and programtically force things, IMO)

actually i have already 56 pages of approval requests, many of them are double, some of them are pure spam and some are fake and less legit. ive got huge marketing going on my site and this mod lacks of some features.
if i set autoapproval on, then im definetely sure i will get some thousands of feedbacks, because my members average age are 16-18 years old.

Kindred

are you allowing guests to submit reviews?

That would be your problem, then...   I only allow members to post feedback and I have no problems at all (with over 35,000 users including many teenagers (our forum is related to a miniatures wargame, played by lots of teens)

i allow all groups except guests. but autoapproval is disabled. so all aproves must be done manually. i have to spend some time to check if all are valid. (no doubles, no friend feedbacks, no fake feedbacks)

I've coded this into my site, so staff could help.  coulda sworn I posted the edits somewhere in this topic.

EDIT::

Nm, I posted my attempts, but forgot to share the edits when I got it to work.  i'll try and dig up the edits from my files.   

@ Maxtor :  Is there a certain place you'd like a quick menu link to the Trader admin menu?  Like under the 'Moderate' tab for staff members?  Or do you want these members to be able to goto the 'Admin' menu and select the Trader mod adminpage from there?

Does this work with any mods besides the default mod?

Kindred

what?

that did not make any sense......


However, This mod is integrated into SMF Bay and SMF Classifieds
I have also integrated this into Ultimate Profile.

Thank you for a great mod, I'm testing it under 2.0.6 with no issues so far - or just theme specific issues I've been sorting out manually.

I have a question that has appeared before in a similar fashion. I'm running a forum with a trading feedback section, so far based on individual members threads updated every time there's new feedback. Of course that requires manual updates of the corresponding fields in users profiles, and hence automating the process will be extremely helpful. I'm ready to manually introduce in the SMF Trader System all the feedback reported so far, since I'm aware that modifying the database is not an option.  Question is how to proceed in order to do this.

Does the feedback have to be introduced necessarily from the corresponding user's forum session? I was thinking about enabling a temporary input field in the feedback form, to include the username submitting the feedback along with the type of feedback and comments. And once all the existing feedback has been migrated to the Trader System, and before enabling Trader System permissions for members, revert the form to default.

I'm learning php basics the hard way and I would really appreciate any suggestions on how to proceed about this.

Kindred

why is modifying the database note an option?
That would seem to be the BEST option...

export the feedback and put it into a table with the correct columns (user being reviewed, user doing the review, feedback content, etc -- check the actual database tabel for the exact columns

and then run an import and put it into the database

Maybe I ruled out the option of modifying the database when I read this comment and the reply. I see now I misunderstood and the "No way for admin to change the feedback" refers to the admin forum interface.

So thank you for the heads up. I cannot really "export" the feedback since it's in forum posts, but I can type it manually into a proper database template, then import the csv. Do you know if any sample of the Trader System database columns has been posted here so far?  - or nevermind if I should simply download mine once the mod is installed, locate the Trader fields and append the manually introduced data.

If you want to change someones comments/feedback that would be though the database requires some sql knowledge and access to a tool such as phpMyAdmin

Odd issue..

My trader system was operating correctly until recently, but I am now receiving an error when you click on a members feedback rating to either view or submit new feedback.  The page displays  (An error has occurred) and (no member selected). 

About the only thing that has changed an seo mod..  I really dont know if the seo mod is at fault here, but if anyone has any ideas please help.  Thanks in advance.  :(

vbgamer45

Can you send me a link to a page where I can click it?
