Track all Duplicate IP Addresses via Admin CP

Duplicate IP tracking v1.2 by Jolten

Be gentle, this is my first release.

What's this do?
This hack is an admin control panel addition. It will render a complete list of all users with duplicate IP addresses in your forums. And adds very little in terms of queries and sever load. This is designed to help those site admins, who wish to, to track users which may have duplicate accounts.

Be aware that many internet service providers (AOL, JUNO, NetZero) may assign the same IP to many different users. A duplicate listing is not an immediate indication of a duplicate account by the same user.



Installation
Files to edit -- 1
Phases to add -- 2
Files to upload -- 1
Database alterations -- None
Total Queries -- 3

Time to install -- Less than 5 minutes

Support
I can't promise full support but I will do all I can to fix any bugs or answer all questions. All support must be done strictly through this thread. If you are using this hack, please click the INSTALL button to be informed of any future updates, add-ons and bug fixes.


Enjoy!

Screenshot Below
It should be noted (since the screenshot doesn't show it due to my censorship of the names) that the list of usernames links directly to the adminCP user options for that user, allowing easy access to the users information.

how would i give super mods permission to trace duplicate IP's aswell?

[loftyasianz]

i guess you could in the modcp.php file add in the construct for the new option but put a if statement in there something like <if condition="$bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==XX"> where XX is the smod usergroup id so only the smod can see it o.o

copy dupip.php to the modcp folder.

In the copy of dupip.php

find:

PHP Code:

if (!can_administer('canadminusers')) 


and change to:

PHP Code:

if (!can_moderate('canviewips')) 


in modcp/index.php

find:

PHP Code:

construct_nav_option($vbphrase['search_ip_addresses'], 'user.php?do=doips'); 


immediately ABOVE that line add:

PHP Code:

construct_nav_option("Dup Ips", 'dupip.php', '<br />'); 


This allows mods to see the duplicate IPS but ONLY if you allow the moderator usergroup to view them (via your usergroup settings in the admincp).

Very odd. My admincp/index.php contains the following -

construct_nav_option($vbphrase['add_new_user'], 'user.php?do=add', '|');
construct_nav_option($vbphrase['dup_ip'], 'dupip.php', '|');

But it doesn't show up. It goes from Add New User to Search for Users.

Add the phrases indicated in the install instructions.
