This modification is no longer available.

The latest vBulletin 3 version (3.8.11) has the same built in system as vB 4.2, that system should be used instead.


This hack makes the forum always use the members real ip when a proxy is detected, meaning that all existing ip functions should continue to work, basically ignoring the proxy server (other than recording it's presence).

For example ;

* The real ip (or host) is displayed in the who's online page.
* The real and proxy server ip's are accesible for each post, the button is red for members using a proxy server.
* The real ip is searchable in the admin/mod cp (but not the proxy ip).
* The real ip can be banned by admins.

Note: Obviously this hack relies on the proxy server passing the correct http variables to allow detection.

If a proxy is detected, then a red ip icon is displayed instead of the standard one. This mod will also detect if the ipinfo hack is installed and adjust itself to call the ipinfo code.


History:

v3.8.001 : Initial release for vbulletin 3.8.


Remember that this modification involves changes to the class_core.php file - if you upgrade your vbulletin, you must reapply those changes.

The tool is nice - but in practice it is unfortunately rarely the case. The browser can be arbitrary IPs and agents concerned. Veracity = 0
If the user then over Tor or proxy's - why should these values at once credible?
Authentic is the public ip in the weblog - which can be used with the IP in the browser to compare - it only has the Board software can not access.

Uninstalled

Does vbulletin do anything like this? because I noticed it said " * Fetches an alternate IP address of the current visitor, attempting to detect proxies etc." If not, then why does vbulletin not do something like this if it is so beneficial?

VB does have a bit of code to detect the original IP - but it does absolutely nothing with it.
