*install* on vB3.0.3. Wow, most complicated hack I've installed to date. Now just waiting for someone to come online with a proxy server to see if the hack works.

Is it really that complicated?

why dont you get a proxy for yourself, log into your board, and check :>
that way you know exactly what you have.

However, if some proxy doesnt return values, you may not have expected answer.

no, you dont need any other mods for this to work, but you need to install ... vBulletin :>

Thanks, had a member showup a few moments ago using a proxy server. Your hack works like a charm. I'd like to give viewing permissions to my supermods since they are online more than me and keep a better eye on things than I do. How do I give them permission?

Admin cp -> Usergroups -> Usergroup Manager -> Click Go to edit Supermoderator permissions -> Select Yes option for all Who's Online Permissions.

I may have encountered a bug since installing this hack. The hack requires the User Agent display to be on in Who's Online to view the real IP address. The default setting for the User Agent display is off. I tried modifying the Whosonline template to have the UA display on by default but couldn't do it. So, I decided to change the template back to the original condition using Revert. After clicking Revert I got a popup warning and continued with the Revert. To my horror it DELETED the Whosonline template. I asked for advice on vB.com to restore the template and it was suggested that I should restore the master template:
AdminCP > Styles & Templates > Upload / Download Styles > Click on import.

This restored the Who's Online template without overwriting my existing template modifications. They also suspected the bug occurred because of a hack I may have installed. Does anyone here have a test forum with this hack installed and would like to see if this hack has caused a problem with the Revert function for the Whosonline template?

Does anyone know how to have UA on by default when loading Who's Online?

Well i've installed everything as I should and when I click the computer Icon on the post, I get the following page (View image). Shouldn't that be something different?

Yes, that should be different because the New Phrase: thread_displayproxyip shows:

The proxy IP Address is: $postinfo[ipaddress]<br>
The proxy host name is: $postinfo[hostaddress]<br>
The real IP Address is: $postinfo[proxyip]

any ideas why anyone?

Is this right?

[MickDoneDee]

Neal, the three lines of info should start with:

The proxy IP Address is:
The proxy host name is:
The real IP Address is:

if you have modified the thread_displayip template as suggested in Proxy
Detector v3.1. *

* The above line is incorrect. It should read:
if you have created the thread_displayproxyip phrase as suggested in Proxy Detector v3.1.

What hack have you installed exactly?
