Hi
I am unable so far to work out how to use the feedback system.

I want the system to work only when someone has bid and won an item.

I have setup 2 users, one user posted an item as a classified ad.

User 2 clicked buy it now, User 2 now clicks leave feedback for user 1

A page comes up with Short comment for transaction and Topic URL

When i enter the topic url of the item i get

You must select a Classifieds listing that you have bid on or created to leave feedback for this user.

What am i doing wrong and why would i even need to enter a URL surely the system knows already if i bid and won the item i am trying to leave feedback for.

First make sure you are using the latest version of the trader rating system
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=346

Next what happens on the submit rating page. If the user has bid on a listing that is marked as completed/closed and the bid was accepted by that user. On that page above the topic url their will now be a dropdown to select which listing to rate on.

Thank you for the response, it would appear i did not realize the bid had to be approved and had not seen this before, i have now managed to leave feedback ok.

I have a couple more questions

It would appear that in the drop down box, the items i can leave feedback for stay there after leaving feedback and because of this i can leave an infinate amount of feedback for the user, is there anyway of stopping the item from being in the drop down box after feedback is left.

Also

There are several places that say 'leave feedback for xxxx' how can i stop that from appearing if there is no feedback to be left, for instance i can leave feedback for myself and when i click 'leave feedback' it says you cannot leave feedback for yourself, is there a simple test i can insert into the code to stop this situation from happening, maybe precheck the drop down box and if empty dont display the link.

Thanks
Peter

1.6
!Do not show listings in submit feedback if already rated the listing - SMF Classifieds
integration
!Do not show the submit feedback link for yourself
!Do not ask for short topic url if classifieds option says you require to select a listing
 - SMF Classifieds integration

Thankyou SMFHacks for this update, just in the process of installing

Ok i have installed the mod to V1.6

I am still having trouble, i am still able to leave feedback as many times as i want to,
as you can see from the image below, i have already left 2 feedback's for the same listing and the submit feedback link is still showing, so i could continue leaving feedback for it.

Do i need to install or alter anything in the classified system to get the new trader mod working.

Cheers,
Peter
