Displaying ip address of user
 

The above displays an empty string, what is the variable name exactly or isn't there one?

Additionally, this doesn't work either:

In a plugin (with appropriate hook location), you could use the statement:

and then register that variable for the template in which you wish to use it.

To which template are you trying to add it, and I can help further. :D

Which hook location would you recommend? As it's for a custom page that I made http://spawnscape614.co.uk/forums/donate/donate.php

I edited my post above...to which template are you trying to add the user's IP?

The template is a custom template called Donate.

Okay, for your plugin, try the hook location "global_start" (since I don't know if there are any custom hook locations associated with this template) and let's try this instead for the PHP code:

Then, in your template, use {vb:raw show.userip}. Let me know if this works. :D

Strangely not as logical as it sounds... I even tried (in the template):

And still nothing.

What PHP version are you using?

5.5.42-cll

What I suggested should work...don't know why it's not. Maybe someone else can suggest another solution. :D
