Hide forms for certain IP addresses
Previous article Next articleHide website forms for certain IP addresses (partial banning)
Create a new User Defined Tag, named "form_ip_filter"
$banned_IPs = array(
"123.123.000.000",
"127.0.0.1"
);
$smarty->assign('ipbanned', '');
if(in_array($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], $banned_IPs)) $smarty->assign('ipbanned', 'true');
"123.123.000.000",
"127.0.0.1"
);
$smarty->assign('ipbanned', '');
if(in_array($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'], $banned_IPs)) $smarty->assign('ipbanned', 'true');

Does a range of IP-addresses work too in this UDT?
F.i.: 31.130.22.138 --> 31.130.0.0/16

Fixed notice
{if empty($ipbanned) || $ipbanned != 'true'}
...
{/if}

This functionality is included in the "new" module Admin IP Lock. It's a fork of the IPLock module. You will find it here:

We will not add the IP lock feature to CustomGS, but probably in a separate CMSMS module.

Extended IP block or allow field is added to the CustomGS module and will be shipped is next release

Not with the method described in this blog.
I'm planning to add an IP field in the CustomGS module. If the IP of the visitor is in the list or within a range in the list it will output TRUE else FALSE (or something...)
Banning IPs from a certain country is not that easy, I am afraid...

Hi Rolf,
Is it possible to blacklist IP ranges, for example ban all traffic from a particular country?
