Featured Replies

With this plugin you will be able to prevent members from logging on different IP's. There are two options:

  • member must be logged out from a previous IP before he will be able to login from a current IP - there will be error message displayed.
  • if member try login from a x.x.x.x IP then he will be logged out automatically from all devices logged with a different IP than x.x.x.

Works like a charm! :) A useful hook if you want to prevent members from sharing their accounts.

Instant support from the author!

Thanks!

If the client enters the IP 192.168.0.1 and days later the IP changes to 192.168.0.2?

It does not work like that.

A client does not “enter” their IP. It’s set by the ISP typically via DHCP. If the ISP changes what IP is assigned, then IF another member of your site also has the same ISP AND gets that same IP… one of two scenarios occurs based on what you configure:

Most likely you would want to use the second option if you are concerned about legitimate users overlapping IP usage.

Ahh now I understand. Perfect! Is this plugin working on IPB 4.6.9?

Yes.

I bought. How do I configure? I can't find the option in the menu.

It's a plugin. You can configure it as any other plugin - from the Plugins list in the ACP.

Thank you for being a client!  The Invision Community Marketplace is closing October 30 2023, so I am moving all of my files over to my personal site https://forum.invisionize.pl
