andrewjs18 Is this enough?

  1. User Profile Integration:

Users' profiles should display trade statistics (total transactions, positive/negative feedback).

Related trade transactions should be stored as history in the profile section.

  1. Feedback and Rating System:

After a transaction is completed, buyers and sellers should be able to rate each other (e.g., 1-5 stars).

Feedback should be visible on both the profile page and trade history.

Negative feedback should be submitted for admin review in case of disputes.

    huseyinfiliz this is great. The things it misses are;

    • what do the trades look like, are they like discussions, are they limited to certain tags
    • how are payment processed, by the extensions? If so what payment provider(s), if not how to guarantee fair trade

    Just a thought. @andrewjs18 specifying it like this helps enormously in terms of interpretation and preventing disappointment.

      luceos You can think of it like profile reviews. There is no payment system, and the site administrator reviews trades if someone submits a complaint. A person who receives positive feedback from different members is considered trustworthy.

        Justoverclock Everyone. All members (or specific member groups).

        It's a plugin commonly found in many trade forums. I don't understand why it's seen as unusual

          huseyinfiliz no no, i understand the purpose of the extension but not the feedback system. so i can leave a feedback to every user without any transaction? what if someone start to give negative feedback to all users?

            Justoverclock Sorry, I misunderstood. That's why trade reviews include a report button. The administration reviews them and can delete these reviews if necessary. Additionally, users who leave false reviews may have their review permissions revoked.

            Actually, it’s very similar to your profile review plugin. The only difference is the addition of positive, neutral, or negative options. These also need to be displayed on profile cards or next to usernames.

            By the way, this is why memberships in active trade forums are often more restricted. Sometimes, verification with a real ID or an invitation system is required.

            I wonder if this could this be a generic feedback system where the role selection of trader, seller, buyer is configurable.

              I think you've hit on a lot of it.

              a few things I'd add and/or change:

              1- users should be notified when feedback is left for them using the default notification system. perhaps even allowing the user to be sent a private message (using byobu) or an email as well - all configurable.

              2- I just thought of this one as I'm reading through this discussion. maybe once the user hits a certain amount of feedback, they get some sort of sticker or badge like other selling platforms do...although I don't know if that is redundant or not because their actual feedback score/number could be seen as just that too.

              3- I personally prefer the feedback rating as positive/neutral/negative, but I can see how someone might prefer a star rating or a more granular approach, like 1-5. perhaps allowing configurable options would be ideal here.

              SychO I think that would probably be doable and potentially have a broader appeal to more users.

              treyb excellent. I'm not sure how we get this turned into a bounty..I'm still learning!

              @luceos, how can we turn this into a bounty?

                andrewjs18 are you able to build a converter for this extension as well so I can get my data moved over from the current mybb system

                This should be a separate request as this is isolated to your situation.

                andrewjs18 how can we turn this into a bounty

                The requirements need to be clear and apparent. If someone would be able to summarize them all and add that the extension should be open sourced, I think we could enable bounties.
