Hi everyone,

is it maybe possible to do this hack:

to adapt to the 2.1 or to write something like that for the 2.1?

I find this very useful in forums where you can sell, buy or trade something

it seems so

i tried to install it, some Files i edited manually - i have seen there is no Karma functions in 2.1

I rummaged through the mods again, looking for a similar mod and came across this one:
https://custom.simplemachines.org/index.php?mod=346

It seems like he's doing something similar.

The trader system is better than karma, less prone to abuse

Karma was entirely removed from 2.1 when we added Likes, because Karma was very biased and you could up-rate or down-rate people repeatedly over time. Trader System or similar is vastly better if that's the type of site you're trying to build.

a free request, but I've found the trader system - that completes the request for me. Thread can be closed.

So 2.1 has "likes" natively? That's new.

Well define 'new', it was probably added like 10 years ago  :laugh:
