Not that I need it but just noticed. I installed a IP Address by Admin Only MOD awhile ago. I think since then, the ACP has no one's IP any more - noew or old posters. Clues??

The IP Address by Admin Only MOD doesn't make any ACP modifications.  The only thing it does is make it so that only admins can see and click on the IP button in the viewtopic page.  Neither moderators nor registered members are allowed to do this once the MOD is installed...

It must be a different MOD.  The IP Address by Admin Only MOD made no ACP modifications...

Well if you can figure out what MOD added that, perhaps we can fix it...

Ok, that MOD seems to be working too.  It can't work for anyone who registered before the MOD was installed, but it does work for everyone who came along afterwards.  Check out Maria's IP addy in your ACP User Admin Management page...

I tried a test registration to make sure it was still working and found that no one was allowed to register because the username was not being stored.  I kept receiving an error to fill in all required fields even though they were all filled in correctly.  I don't know why the username was not being stored, but I added the following workaround to guarantee that if someone enters a username, it will be stored:

OPEN
includes/usercp_register.php

FIND
Code:
$signature = str_replace('<br />', "\n", $signature);

BEFORE, ADD
Code:
$username = empty($username) ? $HTTP_POST_VARS['username'] : $username;

I just checked and my IP addy was stored correctly after the test registration was complete as well...

Ok NR, you've already completed the change up there or should I? And why would it not store the user name?? Did the MOD that bans new registrations leaving URL's do this?? And yeah, I saw 'test2007' and I knew it was you. Very Happy

Next, did phpbb ever have an option in ACP or CP to view IP's??

No, you don't have to do anything.  I applied the workaround already.  Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to successfully register the new account.  I wonder how many new members you have lost from this problem???

I have no idea why the username wasn't being stored.  Everything else was and I couldn't see anything obvious that might have caused this.  I probably could have spent many hours searching for the cause of the problem, but since this workaround was so simple, it was easier just to add it instead...

I don't believe the standard phpBB install came with any IP logging whatsoever...
