Visitor's IP Address ?? [SOLVED]

[pamelina]

Hello,

I'm trying to modify my page to show visitor's IP Address ...
GeoHostIP plugin isn't O.K. for me ... is there an alternative / trick
what to input in a website so I can retrieve the IP and style it in CSS?

[RonnyK]

The module Statistics has the parameter....

visitorip : show the IP of the current visitor

{$smarty.server.REMOTE_ADDR} ?? or something like that.

[SimonSchaufi]

can confirm that:

{capture name=some_content assign=popText}
The server is {$smarty.server.SERVER_NAME|upper} at {$smarty.server.SERVER_ADDR}
Your ip is {$smarty.server.REMOTE_ADDR}.
{/capture}

I have inserted both:

{Statistics visitorip} as stated in module help

and

{$smarty.server.REMOTE_ADDR}

No ... go, it's not working ....

I wish to put Visitor's Ip address to front page so visitor can see his/hers IP.

more details please! where did you put it? if you put it in the template, it works for example

I have a little code snippet that might help (actually not my own code, taken from the geo_ip module - so credits belong to respective author):

Code: Select all

function get_ip() {
  if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'])) {
	$ip = stripslashes($_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP']);
  } else {
	if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'])) {
	  $ip = stripslashes($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']);
	} else {
	  $ip = stripslashes($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']); 
	}
  }
  return $ip;
}

Best
Nils
