Web Proxy Redirector [BETA] Details »»
Web Proxy Redirector [BETA]
Version: 1.2.2, by isosdcftp isosdcftp is offline
Developer Last Online: Dec 2007 Show Printable Version Email this Page

Category: Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Version: 3.6.x Rating:
Released: 05-14-2007 Last Update: 05-18-2007 Installs: 232
Uses Plugins
Is in Beta Stage  
No support by the author.

Current Version is in BETA

What is it?
This hack was designed to prevent users from using a web based proxy such as http://www.dontfilter.us/ to circumvent a IP address ban. It uses javascript to determine if the current domain matches the forum's domain. If it does not match, then it redirects the user to the website of your choosing. If the proxy strips the javascript code, then the forum will not be visible to the user, and a error message will be shown.

Effectiveness
This has been tested and has blocked at least 90% of all web proxies. Best of all, this hack requires no template hacks. The hack is completely self-contained in the product file.
Phrases are used for the informational messages.

Instructions
Instructions are included in the zip file.

Demonstration
For a demonstration, you may attempt to visit my forum http://www.isosdcftp.com through a web proxy such as http://www.dontfilter.us/.

History
  • Version 1.0
    Original Code

  • Version 1.2.1
    Fixed Broken Javascript code
  • Version 1.2.2
    Fixed Settings Panel problem
    Fixed compatibility issue with Hellcat's Realtime Page Compressor

I downloaded and installed the one in the zip and it wasn't in my admin cp. I uninstalled it and installed the 1.2 version and it works fine for me.

is it possible to just log anonymous hits, rather than actively redirect them?
And log the non-java users?

Great potential

Dont let development get you down - you can't always expect the unexpected!

Most (if not all) issues should be fixed in this version.

Thanks jonty
It is possible to log proxy users instead of redirecting. I'll add that to the todo list
As for the non-javascript users, unfortunately I can't see anyway to log them, but I can allow them access to the 'contact us' page, or even specified forums. You think that'll work?

EDIT: Can somebody please test this with Safari? Try my site: www.isosdcftp.com
Thanks in advance.

Sorry, Safari is a no go on your site. I'm still receiving that same message.

Well, finally, release 1.2.2 allowed me to see a settings panel in vBulletin Options

I may need to ask a stupid question here...
When asked to include any domains that my forums are hosted on, and separate them with the 'pipe' character...
What is the pipe character?

edit:
I tried with the letter 'l', but that didn;t seems to work, as I couldn't get back to my forums after and was redirected as if I was using a proxy

It's the symbol on the same key as the \ symbol.
