IpInfo is a replacement for the standard 'view users ip' option in
vBulletin. Normally when you click on the view ip button in a user's post
you'll only see his or hers ip address and host name.

With ipInfo you'll get more information. Besides the ip address and host
name you will also see what other users have posted with the same ip
address. That feature can be really good for spotting clones.

Another thing ipInfo will show you is what other ips this user has posted
with and how many times. Could be useful when you want to ban all of the
ips of a user and not just the one of that post.

Was running IPInfo version 1.5 on a vb3.8 board which was recently upgraded to vb4.

Can I use this mod to upgrade the 1.5 version that I currently have installed on my vB4 board?

hi.. i get :

XML Error: Invalid character at Line 148

when trying to import the product, what's up?

[BadgerDog]

This one stopped working on our 4.0.4pl1 production system.

All we'd get was a white screen when clicked on and it hung ...

If we disabled the mod, the default vBulletin IP data showed up fine ...

Anyone else have a problem with it?

Thanks ..

Regards,
Doug

[SuperTaz]

I'm admin and i can use the php, but how can i let other users such as my staff also see this php info?

I can't find the specific settings to allow others to check more info on ip, they just see the standard vbulletin message.
