Hello
newbb in module, there is a feature that lets you know the IP address of the person who posted a message but also the place where it is located.

Here the function
<{if $topic_post.poster_ip}>
IP: <a href="http://www.whois.sc/<{$topic_post.poster_ip}>" target="_blank"><{$topic_post.poster_ip}>a>
<{/if}>


In the file misc.php there a function that lets you know the IP address of connected people, but not where it is.

I would therefore integrate the function of newbb file misc.php but my knowledge of PHP do not allow me to perform this action.

What do I edit the file?

Thank you in advance

You can probably replace the line in misc.php:

echo '(' . $onlineUsers[$i]['ip'] . ')';

with something like:

echo '( .$onlineUsers[$i]['ip'].' target="_blank">'.$onlineUsers[$i]['ip'].') ';


XOOPS Spain has actually a nice solution, where they show the flag of the country based on the user IP - check out the "Conectados" block

Maybe the Core team can add something like this to 2.6 - you can submit a request to this thread

The Xoops 'XM Memberstats' module already does (did) this for logged-in members.

To get the flags next to users names required the installer to import a 4MB 'ip-to-country' SQL file which could cause some MySQL timeout issues. You could however use the module without this feature by making a small change to the installer.

I use this module only I would like the country flags are visible in the file misc.php between the member and the module

See example below

Mamba,

This is a good functionality, if its not too much to ask, can this be added to core (with an option to turn off)?
