Display logged IP on order form

[shoggy24]

I like the line that reads

 

This order form is provided in a secure environment and to help protect against fraud your current IP address (x.x.x.x) is being logged

 

In the default template, which is located in order-stepone.tpl but i use the single order page and i want it to display on that page when the client is placing the order. So i copied the code to order-steptwo.tpl in singlepage folder. The message is diplayed like

 

This order form is provided in a secure environment and to help protect against fraud your current IP address () is being logged

 

with no IP address showing is there something i am missing or need to do for the IP address to display.

I think the IP address template variable is only available on step 1.

 

You *may* be able to edit step 1 to pass through the IP address as a hidden field and show that on step 2? but that is only an idea

Thanks J,

 

That kinda sucks though, since i use the single product order link, which starts at step 2. I would think it makes more sense to have the message display all through the ordering process and not just the first step.

In the place of the IP variable in the line, can you use your own.

 

$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']

 

That variable will have the viewers IP Address

This is more intricate than what you may want need, but nonetheless:

 

{php}
if ($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']) {
$ip = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];
if (strstr($ip, ', ')) {
	$ips = explode(', ', $ip);
	$ip = $ips[0];
}
$host = @gethostbyaddr($ip);
} else {
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
if (strstr($ip, ', ')) {
	$ips = explode(', ', $ip);
	$ip = $ips[0];
}
$host = @gethostbyaddr($ip);
}
{/php}

 

Your IP has been logged to prevent fraudulent signups 
Host/IP: {php}echo $host{/php}/{php}echo $ip{/php} 
Date/Time: {$todaysdate} {php}echo date("H:i:s");{/php}

 

This is just what I had been using for my old order forms before this was an added variable.

Jason, when i tried your code the page wouldnt load at all, maybe i am missing something.

 

Jordan in order to use your method do i have to create a file using the first code (in your posting above) and then paste the second code in my tpl file.

If so where in the second code do i reference the file created.

[Jordan]

You just copy and paste. The first box of code is wrapped in {php}{/php}. You can just include that in the order form's template file.

Sorry, I didn't really complete the code.

{php}echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];{/php}

 

That should display it.

Use this instead

 

 
<img align="left" src="images/gateways/padlock.gif" border="0" alt="Secure Transaction" style="padding-right: 10px;" /> {$LANG.ordersecure} (<strong>{$smarty.server.REMOTE_ADDR}</strong>) {$LANG.ordersecure2}

Cool. I've not had the time to look at Smarty much at all so i'm not 100% sure of what it is capable of (I just know its capable of quite a bit) - I really should start looking into learning it now that I am using WHMCS.
