OK, simple ignore filter can be implemented in the outline view, fetching a list of members that members add to their ignore list.  I need to add a where clause that states "and owner_id not in ignore list." case CH_WALL_VIEW_OUTLINE:         if($sWhereModuleFilter == '') { $aHidden = $this->_oConfig->getHandlersHidden(CH_WALL_VIEW_OUTLINE); $sWhereModuleF

In fact the built in function in Cheetah getVisitorIP will return the real ip address if one is found.For example, you could place a php block somewhere on your site with this.echo getVisitorIP();And it will show your ip address in that block. Now if you were to go the page that block is on using a proxy, then you should see the proxy ip if the proxy is fully anonymous or you will see your real ip address if it is not a fully anonymous proxy.

  I will be interested in this because the whole idea of me using a proxy is to prevent my real IP address from being known. Only the proxy IP can be obtained with fully anonymous proxies or a VPN. So i can only obtain the real ip address from proxies that are not fully anonymous and provide the real ip address in a alternate http header.However many proxy ip addresses and vpn addresses are known and may appear in databases that can identify them as a pr

  Yes, i can work on that. May be able to do more as well such as determine if a proxy is being used such as a tor or others and show the proxy ip as well as the real ip. I will be interested in this because the whole idea of me using a proxy is to prevent my real IP address from being known.

Great. I'll put it in the suggestions section.

My site is strictly for Australian people only. I tried doing a block in .htaccess, but an overseas friend tested it for me and he could sign up. Although it's a low concern problem, I wonder about people using VPN's and making out they live in the country. I understand you can check for VPN's by doing an IP address search and this may be the best way out for me. Too bad if a person in Sydney tries to sign up using  a VPN address in Melbourne. (Both in Australia).  I know we can find a member's IP

Thanks for your quick response Deano

The update is not really very large. About 32 fixes/changes. The delay right now is the new updater i am working on. It's not going as smoothly as i had expected.It should not be much longer. Perhaps the end of the month.

Hi Deano. Just an inquiry to find out if you're planning to release an update soon. I'd like to run my site which I've placed on hold, but I'm concerned that the next update may be a big one requiring some skill when converting from version 1.2. If it's not far away, I'd rather wait and start afresh. Regards John
