How can I do this in Vbulletin...
 

Hi everyone, how can i do this... i would like to add this into my Vbulletin this is the code...

<?
if (getenv(HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR)) {
$ip_address = getenv(HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR);
} else {
$ip_address = getenv(REMOTE_ADDR);
}
?>

code taken from here>>> http://www.justin-cook.com/wp/2006/1...rs-ip-address/

what this code does is should give me the real IP address of the user even if he/she is on a proxy during registering.

Why i want to do this i noticed some User that register is always spamming the forum even if i have the Human Interface checked.

Any help is very appropriated,

That will only give you the IP address if the proxy the user is using passes on the IP. Any determined user will not use a proxy that passes this information on.

In any case, vBulletin already implements that code (albeit a slightly more complex and better version).

WOW... that was fast :) thank you i didn't know that vbulletin has it already!

Thank you Dismounted very much.
