Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Hide the IP of Super Admins (now it hides it at the online list as well)

This mod will hide the real Ip of the SuperAdmin in posts, in the MOD CP when searching for ip''s. After you install it, go to Settings-Options-Message Posting and Editing Options. And all the way to the bottom you will see 3 settings for the mod. You can enable and disable it, you can also enter a bogus ip for SuperAdmin which then will be displayed instead of the real ip. This is ideal for privacy. By default it affects those Super Admins whose userid is 1. If your userid is not 1 then enter at the third mod settings your own userid.

Things to consider 1: This mod it will hide the real ip of Superadmins for all the posts made before, present and all the time that the mod will be installed.

2: When you uninstall the mod, the past posts made from before, will still hide the ip of the superadmin. Whereas the posts made after the uninstall of the mod, will display the real ip of SuperAdmin normally.


After a request from a customer of mine I expanded it to hide the ip of Super Admin at the online list as well. The expanded version can be found at my forum but it is paid:

What is the exact db error that you are getting?

This:

Invalid SQL:

UPDATE post
SET ipaddress = 'private'
WHERE userid = '1';

MySQL Error : Table 'thevideo_glnetrestore.post' doesn't exist

any chance you can modify this mod a bit and release it as a mod that "hides IP adress for all users, the onlyone who can see the users real IP is the superadmin".
that would be a neat module for people who would like to keep their users anynomous from moderators.

If I do that it will exceed the funcionality of the original mod.

But have a look at my other mod. It kinda does what you want.
