Proxy IP to Real IP Conversion · **Released**: 01-08-2009

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.

This seems like such a useful mod, I can not seem to work out why vbulletin would not do this as default. Thanks for the great mod.

I am totally confused. I installed it and see absolutely no difference anywhere.

Where is this "Red Button" located? I look everywhere on known proxy users and I see nothing.

Please help.

It's installed on the board in my sig.

Thanks in advance.

Read the notes on proxy detection.

Also remember this only applies to posts made after it is installed.

thank you!

it is not possible to know the members's real ip when a proxy is detected but in whos online list?

Paul M · #36 02-25-2009, 08:58 PM

If detected, the real ip will show anywhere in vb

I was looking at the online list of my forum and noticed that a registered member using a proxy has the IP 192.168.1.1. Is this a bug, since this is a private IP?

Paul M · #38 03-04-2009, 08:15 PM

No, its not a bug.

Code:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE, expecting T_FUNCTION in [forum path]/class_core.php on line 2285

Installed three times in two different text editors.
Any idea?

Basically it means there is an error in the edit you have made, use a simple editor like notepad.

Im on mac.
I used ViM twice and TextEdit once.

If you get a chance, the attached class_core.php is what is currently active on my test board.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
