I have a bug to report, and some suggested enhancements to this functionality:
Implemented an option to force thread starter/seller to leave a feedback reply when they get a positive feedback. Only after a reply their positive feedback will be counted towards their total score. The option only applies for trades with a trade thread specified.
Bug:
If the system has a value set in the field "Duplicate Rating Time Limit" (eg 10 hours)
When a positive feedback is left by member 2 for member 1
When member 1 clicks the alert link to return feedback to member 2
Member 1 receives the error message "Please wait 10 hour(s) before submitting new rating for this user."
Suggestion:
Where an unreturned positive feedback is shown on a Member's profile trading tab - Feedback summary and full Trading Profile, any such entries should be either or (preferably) both of:
- Clearly marked as Pending (as its status, rather than Positive)
- Only visible to the two participants and not to any "normal" third parties (i.e. who are not Moderators and upwards - or subject to a permission).
