Yes. Same thing with dorms at colleges and universities, as well as AOL users and such. But it does at least draw attention to potential duplicates for further investigation.

Ditto.

[QUOTE=BadgerDog;2329887]I don't know if this mod could be enhanced to add "cookies" or some other method to further narrow the data, so good guys aren't inadvertently nailed along with bad guys .... :D[quote]

But there are legitimate cases of people using the same computer - couples, siblings, or even friends over at one another's homes.

That's true... :)

The other multiple logon program I mentioned has a field for UserID's to ignore. When I get a response from the users caught in that situation indicating they are father/son etc., I simply add their UserID's to that array and they no longer get flagged.

It has stopped them being penalized by others who attempt to "troll" our site under multiple identities, because those types don't bother to respond to the admin requests to explain the multiple login identities. :D

That type of UserID ignore would be a nice addition to this mod.... :up:

It has it. It's called "User ID Whitelist" in settings. Whitelist = Ignore.

Thanks ... :)

I missed that and only saw the IP whitelist ... doh! :o

Doug

Update, this is already proving useful. Thanks again.

Updated to Version 2.1

Added an option to apply a custom bbcode (like [s]strike out[/s]) to banned users for easy identification in reports.

Added option to show post counts next to usernames.

Also added actual queries to debug info for easier debugging.

Thanks Joe,installed and nominated.

This works flawlessly in 4.2 Beta 1

I installed in 4.2 and ran manually. It generated the report which looks good but did generate a few warnings. Marking as installed. Good mod!

Here are the warnings it generated:

Warning: mysql_free_result(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in [path]/includes/cron/bop5_dupeip.php on line 126

Warning: mysql_free_result(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in [path]/includes/cron/bop5_dupeip.php on line 259

Thanks, I check those out for the next version.

Bug if using mysqli ... change the free results to:

Thanks for the tip, it will be in the next update.

What a great mod BOP5! seriously this is great. Rated and voted.
Just ran this and got this result.

[replacer_a] - Used by 18 users.

Not worried about the duplicates. Shows the mod is working well :)
The [replacer_a] i get ?????

I think I made one of my fellow administrators drool when I asked for opinions on whether or not to install this ;).

Filling in the user whitelist for the size of ours is gonna be a royal pain though...

I don't understand the question?

I assume it shows a real IP address and not "[replacer_a]" ?

No it doesnt BOP5.
It literally shows [replacer_a] instead of the ip address.
But its not a big deal. It still works just fine.
Here is a screener, and i know i did a year back which is silly but i had to to get some duplicates as i removed the recent ones.

Do you have some mod that has changed the IP addresses stored in the IP Address column of the user table?

The only way I could see this happening is if you viewed your user table via phpmyadmin (or whatever) and saw [replacer_a] as an actual value of several users's IP addresses.

"[replacer_a]" isn't code that is used in this mod at all.

Yep i do actually have a mod for Country flags that might be the cause.
I will investigate this further and let you know thanks BOP5.

Hi, what a great mod, something I have been looking for since ages :). Thanks a lot!

Something that just came to mind, I don't think social groups or visitor messages are currently checked for duplicates, though I don't know how much it'd be needed with the registration IP check already in place.

Yeah I don't expect they will be added anytime soon either. Looking at the database tables the IP addresses in those sections are stored in a different format then posts and user table.

I don't feel it is that much of an issue.

Installled :)

But I get a mysql warning when I click the 'Run Now' button....

Would it be possible to add new reports to one thread as a new post instead of having a new thread for each report :)? Great mod by the way. Gave me a lot of important information!

I would need to see a copy of the warning to attempt to fix the problem.

It's something I will try to add to a future version. ;)

Attatched via image as well:

Known problem https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....9&postcount=52

Yes, that bug will be fixed in the next release. In the mean time it does not stop the mod from functioning.

In the meantime you can stop talking to me like that.

I dont see his reply being rude in any way

I agree.

It amazes me that people complain to the authors of the mods when they're getting them for free.

I've installed many of these (including paid premium versions) and I'm extremely grateful to the authors for making my board operations easier for me.

Maybe there was an issue in translation? :confused:

"mean" did not mean "rude" in my sentence. (I was using it as a verb)

Verb:
Intend to indicate or refer to (a particular thing or notion); signify: "I don't know what you mean".

This is a 14 year old child with an obvious chip on his shoulder. Some advice, liamwli: Learn some common courtesy or you won't last long around here.

This one sounds good, it will be going in tonight! :)

I've installed this one and it seems to work just fine. One strange thing though, immediately after I went through the settings and saved them I hit the "Run Now" button and the following "error" appeared:


Warning: mysql_free_result() expects parameter 1 to be resource, object given in [path]/includes/cron/bop5_dupeip.php on line 126

Warning: mysql_free_result() expects parameter 1 to be resource, object given in [path]/includes/cron/bop5_dupeip.php on line 259


The mod appeared to work perfectly though, as far as I can tell, it posted the report in the forum I selected and had what appeared to be valid results so I'm not too concerned but I'm curious as to what the above warnings might mean.

[EDIT] Sorry, just went back and paid more attention to what I was reading. All is explained, ignore above.

Good mod, thanks. Marked as installed.

Thank you, Marked as installed..no issues running 4.2.0

Hello, as said I love this mod :)! However I have one weird problem. I use Glowhost's Spam-O-Matic and no matter what I do and what I try, the report thread ends up in the mod queue every single night. I checked every setting like ten or twenty times, forum permission settings, usergroup settings, Spam-O-Matic settings, I guess simply everything. Still I have that issue. Does anybody have that as well and maybe an idea how to fix it? Thanks a lot :).

I don't use that mod, sorry... Hopefully someone else can chime in. Did you try changing the username associated with the report? Maybe the glowhost mod has some sort of "whitelist" for userids or usernames?

You need to post in the mod post and wait for someone to reply. Posting in another mod will not make it faster if anything will slow the help down

His problem involves this mod too, no reason not to post here- maybe someone has a solution.
