vekia 8,950 Posted May 8, 2013 hello @devilsown sorry but i don't understand what you mean by that, can you explain to me what you exactly expect? You don't know how to get user ip address? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
devilsown 25 Posted May 8, 2013 what i am asking is how would you use this modual? prestashop does not have a built in who is online list like oscommerce has. How do you know who is on the site so you can make a decision to use your modual properly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vekia 8,950 Posted May 8, 2013 Thanks for the clarification. You can get IP address in many ways. first example - you've got stats in prestashop, you can get ip addresses there (it's easy to find crawlers and other unfriendly robots there). You can use also chat like ZOPIM - you've got there full list of online guests with full specification (ip, os, browser, etc.) Many of hosting providers have got own statistics (like awstats ot sth. similar) - you can also get IP address here If you have got an access to the apache / php error log - you can easy find crawlers and robots there If you're on own VPS / dedicated server - you can easily check logs for IP address ...and much more...

fuba 0 Posted September 9, 2013 thank you jolvil. unfortunately i dont have direct access to .htaccess file. my host dont allow this i'm new in prestashop , can you explain step by step tutorial for ban ip in prestashop? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jolvil 78 Posted September 9, 2013 After you have enabled Friendly URLs, you MUST generate a new .htaccess file: go to the "Tools" tab, "Generators" sub-tab, check the "Friendly URL" box, and then click the "Generate .htaccess file" button. This will create a new.htaccess file at the root of the PrestaShop folder. You can add banned IP lines on in the generator's "Specific configuration" field. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

STS 1 Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) Need some help. I am trying to use this module to block ip addresses of those placing advertising comments Blog posts on my site. Just installed earlier today and tested on two IP's. I did a ping to determine their ip. It has been a few hours and I have gotten another post from survocom.com, see text below: From : cheap jordans Url : "JUNKwww.survocom.com/jordans.php" Comment : This comment is attached to the news :... Any idea why it would be getting through? I pinged address again and gave same ip. Any suggestions? *NOTE typed JUNK in front of the URLs so I would not give them any additional free advertising. I hope to get comfortable with this before moving on to the pro version. Thanks! Edited August 14, 2014 by STS (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STS 1 Posted August 14, 2014 Is it possible to block a range of ip addresses? Still trying to solve issue with survocom. Their hosting provider Psychz Networks operates a block of ips 192.184.32.0/19. Considering blocking all of these in case survocom has a dynamic ip. (not sure it works that way, I am just guessing) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Centio 9 Posted August 14, 2014 Ban IP is great tool for quick blocking of IP. In case of attack you rather use firewall block or add IP (range) to .htaccess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STS 1 Posted August 17, 2014 I am still trying to determine my issue. I do not believe it is a problem with BAN IP, but is an issue with determining what IP is adding the content. Visits and visitors is only showing how many visitors I have, not IP address. From discussion above, it looks like within the stats it MAY be storing the IP of the visitors. Is this correct? Can you tell me where to access it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Centio 9 Posted August 17, 2014 If you enable datamining modules in BO then you can see visitors IP. Information can also be found in your firewall or webserver logs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lateral 32 Posted March 4, 2015 Hi Vekia This is a great module! I was working on my web store and noticed that I have 458 visitors in the last 30 minutes which was obviously incorrect! I checked the stats for the IP Address and it was coming from Germany...I'm located in Australia and it looked as though it was constantly bombarding my shop.... I found this free module and configured it to block the IP and the visit count has dropped down to what it should be.... Thanks again Vekia!

durangodave 5 Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) I just dl this and i only see three ip fields, i thought the free version was for 10 ip, i can add the fields myself? i did add 4 - 10 to all parts of of code and seems to work. If i need more than 10 i will buy the module, thanks so much for the module... nice job Edited March 9, 2015 by durangodave (see edit history) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tukker 4 Posted March 15, 2015 Is it also possible to block a range of ip's in the pro-version. there are a lot o bots with nearly the same ip's. But the last nummer is changing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
durangodave 5 Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) Is it also possible to block a range of ip's in the pro-version. there are a lot o bots with nearly the same ip's. But the last nummer is changing. you can always block ranges if you have root access or if your host has given you reseller access to configserver firewall. If not just try this in your htaccess For example: /8 means that #.0.0.0 the zero range will be blocked. /16 means that #.#.0.0 the zero range will be blocked. /24 means that #.#.#.0 the zero range will be blocked. /32 is a single full ip block such as 1.1.1.1 so deny from 123.456.789.000/24 means that anything that is 123.456.789.??? will be blocked source: http://stopspambots.org/cPHulk_BlockList.html this site has some good tricks for stopping spammers.

durangodave 5 Posted June 13, 2016 Hi, i dont use PS anymore, closed my business, however try adding the IP Deny to your .htaccess file and see if that works. If that does not work then the bot could be changing proxies on the fly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
