Postbit Country Flag by IP Address

03-18-2007, 07:22 PM

I'm using this template edit on a site that I'm working on and I thought that I'd share with you fine folks.
Inserts the posters country flag according to the ip address that's logged when the post is made.
Everyone with rights to edit the post can click on the flag to correct errors or unknown returns.

Go to your AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> Select your style and click on the drop-down menu to "Edit Templates", then hit Go -> Postbit Templates -> Choose the one you use, or both postbit and postbit_legacy -> Find $post[icqicon] , and above it add:

Code:

<if condition="$post['editlink']"> <a title="Click here to correct this flag." href="http://www.hostip.info/correct.html?spip={$post[ip]}"> <img src="http://api.hostip.info/flag.php?ip={$post[ip]}" width="50px" border="0"></a><else /><img src="http://api.hostip.info/flag.php?ip={$post[ip]}" width="50px" border="0"></if>

This modification is currently dependant upon ip data collected for the individual post. I am working on a way to make it dependant on the ip address collected during registration.

I have encountered an issue with users that have dynamic ip addresses from otherwise undocumented providers. This will likey be resolved by using the correction feature a few times. If you weren't collecting IP data for posts prior to this modification the flags on older posts will not reflect the country.

Но ведь в таком случае каждый сможет видеть ай-пи ? Т.к. они будет в линке (http://api.hostip.info/flag.php?ip={$post[ip]}). Я правильно понял?
