IP address from user profile

Hi peeps

This is my 1st attempt, well actually i was helped by peterska2 of which i am
eternally gratefull

I have been wanting a hack like this for a while now, due to users registering
and not posting, because they have not posted, there is no easy way to find
thier IP address other than searching for it in the admincp.

With this hack all you have to do is go into the users profile and the IP image is
there next to the User Options link (see screenshot) click this and you have the
users IP address

Hope you find this as usefull as i do!!

Instructions

In the memberinfo template

FIND

    <if condition="can_moderate()">
        <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="moderator.php?$session[sessionurl]do=useroptions&amp;u=$userinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[user_options]</a></td>
    </if>

REPLACE WITH

   <if condition="can_moderate()">
        <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="moderator.php?$session[sessionurl]do=useroptions&u=$userinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[user_options]</a>
<!-- Bashy's IP Hack Start -->
&nbsp;<a href="admincp/usertools.php?$session[sessionurl]do=doips&username=$userinfo[username]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/ip.gif" alt="$vbphrase[ip]" title="$post[ip]" border="0" /></a>
<!-- Bashy's IP Hack end -->
</td>
    </if>

If you want this for your Moderators as well then please replace the above with this code, With thanks to thalamus for this addition

   <if condition="can_moderate()">
        <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="moderator.php?$session[sessionurl]do=useroptions&u=$userinfo[userid]">$vbphrase[user_options]</a>
<!-- Bashy's IP Hack Start -->
&nbsp<a href="modcp/user.php?$session[sessionurl]do=doips&username=$userinfo[username]"> <img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/ip.gif" alt="$vbphrase[ip]" title="$post[ip]" border="0" /></a>
<!-- Bashy's IP Hack end -->
</td>
    </if>

Please click install if you use this

EDIT: Now optimised for IE

It should work in 3.5.2

[bashy]

Does it not work for 3.5.2 then?
I would have thought it did?

Im sure peterska2 can shed some light on this?

Well when i try this nothing shows up in users profile so i thought that it was not compatible with my version. ?

[peterska2]

Were you logged in as an admin when you tried it?

Yes i was, and just to make sure i just tried it again, and still nothing.

[peterska2]

strange, because I've got it working in all versions of 3.5 here

This is a nice little add-in; however, it only works with admins. Any ideas as to how this can be set to work for moderators of the forum as well? As has been mentioned, it's a direct link to the admincp function which means it needs admin access?

[edit] found the workaround... find in the MEMBERINFO template:

<a href="admincp/usertools.php?$session[sessionurl]do=doips&username=$userinfo[username]">

and replace with:

<a href="modcp/user.php?$session[sessionurl]do=doips&username=$userinfo[username]">

Should work for both mods and admins with this setting.

[bashy]

Very good...although i only needed this as admin i didnt think about others...i will add this to the 1st post, thanks again...ps i have added this to my forum now

Just upgraded one of my boards to 3.6.0, and I get this error:

Security alert: hash mismatch. Please press back, refresh the page, and try again.

when I use this modification; anyone else got this, and is there anything in the session variable that needs to be amended?

[peterska2]

This modification does not work with 3.6.0 and higher. It is untested on 3.5.5 and may or may not work there also.
