What does it do?
This hack allows to fetch additional information about particular IP address at standard VBulletin information dialog in posts (see attached screenshot). Information is got from public internet services. List of services can be easily extended by user.

The following default tools are included into distribution:

WhoIs Information
GeoIP
SpamDB lookup
TracePath
TraceRoute



How to install?

1. Install *.xml file via Admin Control Panel (Product management)

Version history:

1.0 (05/09/2008)

Initial release



If you know a link to a good IP information service, please send it to me. I will be included into next release of IPTools.

Only for those, you allowed to view IP addresses. If they can view IPs, they can view this extended info as well.

Change the who is link to for a better who is look up.

http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/ipall/?ip=

And change the Geo IP to.

http://www.geobytes.com/IpLocator.htm?GetLocation&IpAddress=

so in your options for the plug in it should look like.

WhoIs Information|http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/ipall/?ip={FRIP}
GeoIP|http://www.geobytes.com/IpLocator.htm?GetLocation&IpAddress={FRIP}
SpamDB lookup|http://www.iptools.com/dnstools.php?tool=spam_db&user_data={FRIP}
TracePath|http://www.iptools.com/dnstools.php?tool=tracepath&user_data={FRIP}
TraceRoute|http://dns-tools.domaintools.com/?q={FRIP}&m=traceroute

I'll keep looking for better links.

Installed on v4.03, but I don't see the screen as indicated ... :confused:

Is it possible this mod conflicts with IPinfo v2.0 mod. also for v4?

GeoIP is highly inaccurate. My own IP is located about 500 miles away. ip-adress.com seems to be better but you can only do one search per day - or you have to pay a yearly fee (35 bucks).

Tagged for later use.

If the person uses proxies, will this ignore the proxy and get the correct info?

It does no additional IP parsing. So, if VBulletin can determine real IP, mod will operate on it. It only provides you additional info on IP, recognized by VB.

Hey Vlad, just a question: is there any conflict with this product? https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=2062882#post2062882

edit: yes there is, can you do something to make the 2 products compatible?

I cannot do anything. The author of the product replaces a link to standard VBulletin IP information page by his own in every postbit template:

$post['iplogged'] = "$vbphrase[ip]: <a href=\"ipinfo.php?$session[sessionurl]p=$post[postid]\">$post[ip]</a>";

I don't see why because you can attach your own HTML to standard page via implementing threadmanage_getip hook.... So, you should contact original author. I am sorry.

I already answered somewhere that it uses IP determined by forum engine. Nothing else is done on it.

Is there a way to put hook location in his template? That way we could use your product with his by adding hook location. But, how is hook location added?

EDIT:

I found the way. You need to edit IPinfo's ipinfo.php file. And just add hook location there.

Hook location looks like: ($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('threadmanage_getip')) ? eval($hook) : false;

I added it end of file, so it looks like that:

($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('threadmanage_getip')) ? eval($hook) : false;

$navbits = construct_ipinfo_nav($foruminfo, $threadinfo);
$navbar = render_navbar_template($navbits);

Now I have both products working fine.

Does this work with vB 4.2.1, or is there another more recent mod that does similar?

I'm most interested in a one click geolocation look up. That helps me decide the likelihood that a poster is a spammer.

Correct. Not only that but I tried to remove the links and received errors from the script. Can someone explain how to properly remove these faulty links? Thanks.

IP Tools is down

So SpamDB, TracePath, don't work

Also TraceRoute doesn't seem to work either, the domain name and path has changed.
Here is the proper path and it can be updated in AdminCP, Options, Fractalizer IP Tools Options

TraceRoute|http://domaintools.com/research/traceroute/?query={FRIP}&search=traceroute

Any updates in the future possibly?

So here is what I added to replace some of the non-working tools:

Spam Blacklist Check|http://network-tools.com/default.asp?prog=sbl&host={FRIP}

Network Lookup|http://network-tools.com/default.asp?prog=network&host={FRIP}

TraceRoute|http://domaintools.com/research/traceroute/?query={FRIP}&search=traceroute
