get clients original ips to show in client area while using cloudflare

[Alien Hosting]

i have tried so many different things from google and i cant seem to figure this out. i can see the clients real ip in the admin area but when they login and place an order it shows the proxy ip. so if i try to ban a client it will not work because they are logging in with the proxy ip

i have added the trusted ips from couldflare and used the headers: CF-Connecting-IP  and  X_FORWARDED_FOR 

i have even created a hook: 

<?php if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP'])) 
$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP'];
?>

none of this seems to work. can someone please give me the breakdown on the steps to fix this issue please.

If you executed it correctly, what is in the link ( https://docs.whmcs.com/system/trusted-proxies/ ) should work.

Take a testa, edit the configuration.php file and insert it on the last line:

if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP'])) {if (filter_var($_SERVER['HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP'], FILTER_VALIDATE_IP)) {$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP'];}}
