We had to developed a very simple asp list some years back because members sometimes came back under a different name etc...

We wanted one box into which we entered a part IP or part nickname and it reports all matching IPs with nicknames used in posts (getting the nickname) from the author record.

Ours does not link to the post but I am wondering if a small enhancement of your new facility to do part IPs and/or part nicknames would be useful...

I think this was the code

Recordset1.Source = "SELECT dbo.tblAuthor.Username, dbo.tblThread.IP_addr FROM dbo.tblAuthor INNER JOIN dbo.tblThread ON dbo.tblAuthor.Author_ID=dbo.tblThread.Author_ID GROUP BY dbo.tblAuthor.Username, dbo.tblThread.IP_addr HAVING (dbo.tblThread.IP_addr) Is Not Null and ((dbo.tblAuthor.Username) Like '%" + Replace(Recordset1__nick, "'", "''") + "%' or (dbo.tblThread.IP_addr) Like '%" + Replace(Recordset1__nick, "'", "''") + "%') ORDER BY dbo.tblAuthor.Username;"

The new IP Address search can do both part IP Address and there is still the option to search on part username.

You are also able to combine the two so you can search on part IP and part Username.

You also still have other options avaiable such as show results as Topics, Posts, select date range, select forum, etc.

Installed and loving it! The only thing better would be an admin-only button next to the IP address of a poster to search that IP. Maybe someone handy in ASP code could whip it together (hint hint Wink)
 
On a related note, here's a great site for investigating IP addresses. Country of origin and subnet. It helps me block entire subnets from ISPs with spammers:
 
 
Plug-in the IP address and check "network whois".

Just a little warning: I haven't checked 9.64, but in 9.63 and earlier the IP address of a post is changed when the post is edited. That means that if a moderator is editing a post made by User1 and a post made by User2, both posts will show the IP address of the moderator. Therefore it will falsely look like User1 and User2 is using the same IP address.

Yes it is in 9.64.

You need to be logged into the forum as an admin or moderator and when you go to the advanced search page you type in the IP or part of the IP as the keyword and in the drop down box next to it select to search for an IP address.
