What hack have you installed exactly?

Neal, I made an error when I said:
if you have modified the thread_displayip template as suggested in Proxy Detector v3.1.

it should say:
if you have created the thread_displayproxyip phrase as suggested in Proxy Detector v3.1.

The phrase thread_displayip already exists. You are not meant to touch that. You are meant to create a NEW phrase called thread_displayproxyip.

In the Text field you should insert:

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

That will give you the proper display.

Did you do all the steps, including this one?:

### Run the Following SQL Query (for POST)
ALTER TABLE post ADD proxyip VARCHAR(50) not null AFTER ipaddress;

### Run the Following SQL Query (for WOL)
ALTER TABLE session ADD proxyip VARCHAR(50) not null AFTER `host`;


you have to have that field to store proxyIP, otherwise you will get the default IP page as you had

Yes I did, and checked the database and it was all in there. I may have done something else wrong but who knows. I'm normally okay at adding hacks but I'll leave this one for now....:ermm:

Good job with it anyhow, wish I could make them!

The new template will ONLY be displayed when PROXYIP exists (recorded).

You should try to add (manually) some number into the proxyip field of some post that you KNOW (in order to test). If you have the number appeared in "show IP windows" then you are fine, just check the code to detect the proxy. Some proxys are not detectable.



btw, the code only work for NEW posting. it wouldnt know the proxyip for old posts.

I've just installed it and faced to the same problem... Looks like information do not add into proxyip in the post table. This field clean. Could you advise something?

do some checking as I said earlier first. I wont advice if I dont know more detail

[theArchitect]

If I could ask for some assistance as this is not working.

If I use the link http://YourDomain/Yourforum/online.php?ua=1 then I get the new look Who's Online page with all of the relevant details. However, this info is not saved and when I next go to Who's Online it has reverted back to its original state.

Also, when I click on the IP info button in the postbit I just get the regular IP info postings.php page. I don't get the proxy ip is etc which is shown in attachment 1.

I am running 3.0.3 so this may have something to do with it.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Look at the bottom of Who's Online - you should see these settings:

Display: All (space) User Agent: No (space) Per Page: 20

They are the default settings that appear whenever you load http://YourDomain/Yourforum/online.php?

To see the results of the Proxy Detector v3.1 hack you need to select User Agent: Yes

The Real IP is seen above the user agent info and if a Proxy IP is detected you will see the round blue icon with question mark within the user agent info. Mouse-over that to see the Proxy IP.

If you are concerned about the User Agent setting defaulting every time you leave and return to Who's Online then keep Who's Online open but minimised as an icon on your taskbar while you browse the rest of the site in another open window.

*looks sheepishly stupid for a moment*.

Thankyou. Although, in the first screen shot is that suppose to be displayed when I click on the IP address icon located next to each post?
