IP field in FomidableAnswerSets

Permalink Browser Info Environment
We are hosting our concrete5 installation behind caching servers. After completing the form and submitting, we were getting a 500 error. After further checking, Formidable was grabbing two IPs -- from the client and one of the caching servers. Because the size of the IP field is only 15, this caused a SQL error on the insert. We increased the size of the IP field to correct the issue.

The question: why is formidable grabbing both IPs? Or how can we configure formidable to run in a cached environment?

My concern is that I will forget this little gem if we ever have to update/upgraded Formidable.

Thank you for your time.

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply!
Not sure why there are 2 IP's grabbed.

The code to determine the submitter is this:
private function get_ip() {
      $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];    
      if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'])) {
         $ip = $_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'];
      } elseif (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'])) {
         $ip = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];
      }    
      return $ip;
   }

Why ip produces 2 IP's isn't clear to me...

I'll change the max length in the DB. So if you update this won't be an issue.. :)

Best,

Corretje
