I'm getting a problem where since updating to version 3.6.5 almost all ip address are showing up as proxy ip's?

Thanks,

Fifth

Did you re-edit class_core.php after upgrading ?

Were you answering this question?

Um, yes ..........

lol, I wasnt sure...you know how these post go crazy.

Wow, I didn't do it but I did fix it now. It is not fixing the already messed up ones? How can I fix it?

Thanks,

FifthE1ement

Ok now I did all of the correct edits I'm using 3.0.10. I tested it by using anonymizer.com the anonymous surfing program and instead of my real ip showing the fake one came up as where I was posting from. And the icon of the computer wasn't red. Now when I click on the computer I get a blank page.

There is no edit to postbit_ip in the instructions.

Yeah that's where I messed up. So I removed that and went into the template and made the corrections. But now when I click on the computer to see the ip I get a blank page. Before I was getting a mysql 2006 error. And my postings.php is now blank.

Hi,
i just installed this script, no error, but i have a question.
I dont see the icon anywhere when proxy is detected for some reason.

Where should i look for it?

I am sure that this script works.
I did netstats -n on my server and seen proxy IP listed there, and on forum (/online.php) it displays real IP.

What did i do wrong?:))

Picture is uploaded to hosting.

Thank you

A red pc...but then again I see it on my own on some threads and not others.

It doesnt work for me.
I am actually not even sure if this hacks works for me or not.
Friend of mine just logged in to my website using proxy, and it display his IP as Proxy ip.

I re-did all 2 times, and i dont see what wrong have i done.

://

Going to read more about this :)

it's works on 3.6.5?

Yes.

Installed reicieved no error messages at all. Do I need to find it through the vb options to activate it or anything like that? Or its just works without me doing nothing to it? Is this suppose to resolve unknown host names aswell? If its suppose to then its not working for me.

Also some of my templates already have a button called px.gif should I overwrite them? Thanks

Why would you be expecting error messages ?

It just works.

Sorry, miracles are beyond even me. :)

No idea, I've never come across anything else that uses px.gif.

Not sure what to expect with mods you know that so why are you so surprised? ;)

Great...

Damn I was hoping you were a miracle worker!


Well apparently Vbskinworks use the same name for that button.
If I rename your image to something else do I need to redit anything in the class core file?

Thanks for you quick responses.

Paul is it still possible to make it show the IP icon then when a proxy is detected make the red icon show up in place when used with IPINFO?

Also you say this is now designed to work with IP info. How so? Does it reveal the proxy in IP info under host name?

All that happens if IPINFO is installed is that the icon links to the ipinfo page, not the standard page.

I have done everything it said and it doesn't appear to be working. Tried it with a few proxies and nothing different.

Same here I dont think its working either. I even know a few individuals who are using proxies and nothing seems to happen.

It works fine.

This has been covered many times in the thread - please actually read the description, it's there for a reason. :)

When it says find:

I can't find it in the class_core.php

Look harder (or get a decent text editor).

They are at about line 1565.

Can you tell me the info i need to add say a box, showing the proxy IP if detected to the IPinfo screen?

I cannot tell you how to edit someone elses product.

im not asking that, im asking for the phrase that this hack calls up or any other infomation i would need to make the appropriate edit myself :)

The proxy ip (if it exists) is stored in the post table field 'proxyip' - so in the normal $post array it would be $post['proxyip'].

Say I have a member that keeps coming back after getting banned through various proxies... is there a way to prevent proxies from even being allowed to view the site?

If it is possible, would you recommend against it? Or is there some other way to get rid of the member?

Lol, use Miserable Users. It's the best. ;) You could also ban the IP in your .htaccess file, I used to do that a lot with this one particular user. Anyways if you ban the IP in your .htaccess, the user knows you're out to get them; with Miserable Users it looks on their end that your server is just busy. Very very busy. With that user I mentioned, the more I actually banned him, the more hostile he got; but Miserable Users is a more passive approach. He didn't realise I was actually still keeping him off of the forum, so he cooled off, thinking *I* was the one stuck with a crappy server.

Can you set it up so that it looks like they're just a regular user? So they don't figure out they're specifically being targetted?

If you have questions about another mod, please post them in that mods thread. :)

Thanks alot paul, working nicely now :)

What if I use a different image icon?

Um, you'll get a different icon displayed ..........

LOL :D

I know that funny guy what I was getting at is will the hack still function correctly? Like how is it going to be red if I have a black Button?

Since the update to 3.6.5 all the post icons have gone red to indicate proxy usage.
Has anyone else noticed this?
Or is it unrelated :)

/edit
D'Oh - the upgrade probably wiped out the changes (in the readme)
Going back to re-apply.

I seemed to have this running smoothly in version 3.6.4, but now that I've upgraded to 3.6.5 the following occurs.

When a proxy is detected and I click on the icon it gives the real IP but, where the PROXY IP used to be listed it instead just has the text : PROXYIP

Also,

I then disabled the mod, and it turns out that the real IP that was listed (after the proxy was detected) remained the same, so something isn't right. If it is disabled, then the only IP I should be able to view on that user would be the proxy IP right?

Read the nice bold blue line in the main post .... ;)

Nope, disabling the product will not prevent the IP conversion.
