hello

I use CB 1.4 and your last JFBconnect version. For legal purpose I need to get IP address of each user who register to the site and this when they register using both standard CB process or JFBconnect.

I just discover when users register using JFBconnect, IP address is not stored inside database (CB stores the users IP address at time of registration to the database table _comprofiler as column registeripaddr.) ... When using standard CB registration process no problem, the address is stored...

My JFBconnect configuration is set for create Joomla user using CB so I'm surprised to see IP is not stored... Do you know how I can do for get this essential info??

thank

We actually started looking into this today. In all honesty, I didn't know about the ipaddr field in the database.

Either way, we have some ideas of easy ways to add the ipaddress on registration, but it likely won't make it in until the 4.0 release expected next week. That release will also have the other fixes we've added to the CB plugin already on your site.

Just a few other questions about this field:
Is there any way to see the ipaddress field in Community Builder, or is it simply something you have to look in the database to see?
It's only set on registration, correct, not on every login?

Thanks,
Alex

Great if you can look in to this for your next release...

About IP you can take a look on my CB post here:

www.joomlapolis.com/forum/154-advanced-m...user-register#170354

In this post I forgot to precise I use JFBconnect and not the official CB Facebook Connect addon...however the reply of Krileon can maybe help you...

For what I know IP is available only on first registration..not at every login..
