When someone views a classified ad, I think the display of the members Trader Rating could be more helpful. Right now it's only on the right in small print. Perhaps it could be more visible? For example, if it showed their Percentage (like 80% positive feedback) that would be more useful and understandable to a newbie than the +0/0/-0 display. Maybe have both percentage and the breakdown?

That will require custom coding.
You can change the index route from AdminCP -> Options -> Basic Board Information -> Index Page Route (from 'forums/' to 'classifieds/')
I have yet to add support for CTA.
Would it be in the same size as others or make the percentage bigger?

That is a really weird error:
PHP:
protected function _getFromDb($itemName)
{
return $this->_getDb()->fetchRow(
'SELECT data_value, expire_date <-- this is line 50
FROM gfncore_data_cache
WHERE data_key = ?
AND expire_date > ?', array($itemName, XenForo_Application::$time)
);
}Yes, it's coming soon.

This is a suggestion that I've been thinking about:
I know there's an option to allow external ratings to be made. If I understand correctly, this is when a deal is closed outside the classifieds system.
But what if there could be an intermediate option. One where you should specify a classified to be able to rate an user, even when such classified hasn't been marked as completed.
The use case would be when a seller has a single classified with several items for sale (similar to a store). A rate button could be inserted in the classified page and anyone can rate an user which has an active classified.

I would probably make both bigger, but if I had to choose one, the percentage would be bigger (placed on the ad page).
Great addon, glad I purchased this, going to make my site infinitely better.
Couple of suggestions
1. The ability to get rid of the "Discussion" tab. Can I just use the built in comments to keep things simplier for my members.
2. A way to redirect the users from the thread view to the classified view without having to click the link in the thread to get to the classified.

Since the add-on now requires XenForo 1.5.4 and above I guess it's only logical to add support for tags.
Okay, to make it clearer: In the classified view page, for active classified, there will be a new control button (top right, beside the breadcrumbs container) that will allow other users to rate the classified owner? What if someone misuses this feature?
Okay, thanks for the input, I'll make the changes for the next version
You can disable the discussion tab (for new classifieds) by not associating the categories with forums. The add-on works just like XenResources: a thread is created along with a classified if the classified's category is linked/associated with a forum node.
The main purpose of associating threads with classifieds is that members can publicly discuss about the classified in the associated thread.

Yes, i use this function because there are no alerts for a new classified.
With this function the user see a new thread and than at first he is interested to click the classified section.
Should there be alerts for new classifieds? I think "yes"

I have added this to my to-do list for RC 4. An alert will be dispatched to users who are watching the category the classified is under.Should there be alerts for new classifieds? I think "yes"

Not good if it is only for watched categorys. I think it´s better for all new classifieds.

The current possibilities are:
1) Users can only rate other users when a classified is marked as complete.
2) Users can rate other users openly.
What I propose is a third possibility where users can openly rate other users but only if they specify a classified item. My community usually post classifieds with several items, for example, they post 10 watches available for sale. In the current status of the product, they would have to create 10 different classifieds in order to receive ratings. The suggested change would allow them to post only one classified and be able to receive several ratings associated with it. The risk is still there but it would be more manageable because each rating would be associated with a specific classified. What do you think?
Mr. Goodie2Shoes

Yes, I think this can be possible and the classified can be linked with the trader ratings. Can you suggest how multiple ratings can be linked/shown on the classified view page? Currently a "notice" is shown in the header that a user rated the owner of the classified.

Also alerts for when your classified is about to expire and has expired would be nice. Right now there's no way for you to know unless you go into it. If this is already implemented apologies.
Mr. Goodie2Shoes

Yes, this has in my to-do list for some time
Everyone watching a classified will be notified (via alert and/or email) x days before a classified expires and when it expires.

new classifieds = alert for all by default (checked by default somewhere in user options), if they do not want that options, they can disable it in profile settings
Mr. Goodie2Shoes

okay, I'll add a new alert preference to send notification when a classified is created.
watch category is already there... when a user creates a new classified in the watched category, other users will be notified... sorry for the confusion.
