Member's Country

[Henk Bartels]

Hello,

I got an problem with this plugin. Since the last update, new users can not register anymore, and getting en error EX0

I already had the support from Invision looking at this, and they told me that your plugin was causing the problem.

I swithed off the plugin and registrations work normal again.

Please lookin to this.

I'm able to create an account just fine:

What's the error message in your log?

[Henk Bartels]

This is the answer i got from Invision Support :

The issue here is being casued by the 3rd party plugin 'Members Country'. You would need to contact the author of that application for assitance.

In the error-logs there is the following :

Are you using the latest Members Country version? Are you in the plugin yet? This is now an app and it doesn’t even has a hook in registration process anymore. It uses memberSync now. 

EDIT: oh boy, you’re ages outdated! Your last download is from 05/04/2020 03:44 AM!

Update it.

Hello Adriano,

I did not get any update messages about this, but i don't know if that is done for plugins.

However, i did load the newest version (application now) and now everything is working fine.

Thank you

Henk

The country flag will be updated when the member location is added or edited.

Sorry for this dummy question. I wanted to buy the plugin but I am confused after reading the GeoLocation statement in the plugin's description.

• IPS Geolocation is an active license perk so you need to have an active license to countries get picked by IP Address.

What does it mean exactly? I need to have an active license of what? I have searched IPS for geolocation, location, and I can't see anything. Thanks

Just active license of IPS. If you are self-hosted and your IPS license expires, this mod will not work.

IPS is hosted in my own server and I have an active IPS license. I guess it should work then

Actually it won’t pick the country automatically but it keeps showing the flags.

Users can also choose a country manually in Account Settings.

I've just purchased the plugin. I can't make it work as expected. I see the flags on a very reduced number of users.

I logged in ACP and made sure that the IPs corresponded to their countries. See below. Aren't the IPs detected and the flag will be added based on the IPs? Most users won't show the flag, the majority of them.

I've edited the user whose IP is below, added address, etc. Saved. Still, no flag. Same with most of the users. It's not about the country, because I can I am the only user from Spain that displays the flag, no other user has it. 

What could be wrong? Is it the IP that is detected and the flag added based on it?

I know nothing about this application at all, but the above would indicate to me that SOMETHING has to happen for a user's flag to appear. Which leads me back to reading the opening information about the application, specifically:

It uses the Geolocation to grab the country when a new user register an account or when existing users logs in on your board

It’s enough to the user browse any page or your community. The country will be picked if he’s a group you selected in the settings.

This is a very common “mistake” on this resource. As this is an app now, I’ll add a tool to grab country flag from all members on a background task and will also run it when installing the resource so it will show up the flags to everyone after install.

That would be awesome. Thanks

Quick question. A member from China sees his profile is displaying an American flag. Are flags calculated only his the IP? If the member edits his profile and changes his country, will the country's flag be displayed regardless of the IP? 

Users might use a VPN different from his original country and the flag would not match his country and nationality 

Thanks

Can be the 2 things there you mentioned.

Hi Adriano. Small typo in members_country_show_desc

You have want with two tt

[Giray]

Hi Adriano.

I need to import users (often). I just tried using the IPS import via CSV function. I noticed that the Country does not appear as one of the import fields. Did I miss it or is it not there? If not there, could it be?

Thx.

[Adriano Faria]

Not there. I have absolutely no idea. Will take a look when I have to upgrade it again.

Thanks. No worries for now though. I may be able to import the person's registration IP and that should set the country automatically 😇

**edit**

Worked perfectly. As long as you have the member's IP address, the import feeds right in 😉 Happy.

Hi @Adriano Faria,

Thanks for the application. Is there a way or consideration for this to be displayed on just the members post rather than everywhere in the forums please?

Hello,

Go to the app settings and uncheck the Display flags everywhere or something then you’ll see all the apps you have. Choose the ones you want the flags to show.

Thanks for the reply. I have done this, but by selecting Forums it displays everywhere, ideally I'd like this to only display next to the Members Username alongside their post as per the screenshot:

Could there be some consideration for finer settings where it displays within the forums as there are a lot of places currently...

Regards

Jim

Also the option of it showing on the 'Who's Online' Widget?
