I admin a large community forum.  90% of our users all post thier real names, or at least very close.  I have a few that create duplicate accounts to harass others.  Can I search for an IP address?  I would like to compare messages or better yet any posters with the same IP.
Sorry if it's been posted before but the search won't accept the word "IP" because it is only 2 characters.

If you are logged in as an Admin or Moderator go to the Advanced Search and enter the IP address as the keyword, then select 'Match IP Address' from the drop down next to the keyword.

It will then search for all posts that are posted under that IP address.

hmm.  I don't have a match IP address option.  I have match all words, match any word, or match phrase.

I would post a snapshot, but would need to load it up someplace else.  I have exactly what you show, but NO Match IP Address

You need to be logged in as an admin or moderator to see the option.

This option was added sometime during the 9.6x version family, so you may need to upgrade if running and older version.
