Resolve IP adress to country

[martin1]

Best regards,

I would loved to resolve ip address of my forum users to get their home countries and store it under their profiles in the hidden field or just to get the report.

I was also looking for some addon that could point users on the map but that didn't worked as expected because it was very intensive for server or required geo php plugin configuration by the hosting.

Can you give me some advice or recommend which hack or coding could give me such info?

GET COUNTRY FROM THE IP.

okay is it possible to get the info with some query and store it in file ? not necessary as a vbulletin addon.

One thing to be aware of is if they are using as proxy then the information returned may not be accurate.
