Restore Original IP Address on IPS Community Suite 4 So if you run CloudFlare on your website and you've just freshly installed IPS4, you may see in your userlist that everone seems to have an IP from the same IP range. This is because cloudflare handles your traffic now and thus the REMOTE_ADDR header is from cloudflare's servers IP now. There are a few methods to do this, some of which requires you to have server access. If you are unsure if you have any module installed, upload this php file cloudflare.rar to your server and navigate to it. Method 1 - Application Level To restore the original IP address on application level, you can make IPS4 use X_FORWARDED_FOR. To do this, go to your Admin CP > Security and press the "Security Settings" button and make sure Trust IP addresses provided by proxies? is enabled: Method 2 - Server Level (cPanel/WHM) (EasyApache with mod_cloudflare) To use this method, you must have some sort of sense of what you're doing and you must have cPanel/WHM installed on your server and must have WHM root access. Run the following command on SSH: # wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cloudflare/mod_cloudflare/master/EasyApache/installer.sh # bash installer.sh Alternatively, you can run this instead: # bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cloudflare/mod_cloudflare/master/EasyApache/installer.sh) Now navigate to easyApache on whm: Go through the steps, in the "Short Options List" there should be a Mod CloudFlare option now: Method 3 - Server Level (Manually) (RedHat/CentOS/CloudLinux) (Apache with mod_cloudflare) mod_cloudflare has a few software dependencies that need to be installed first: # yum install libtool httpd-devel Next, you should download the mod_cloudflare source to your server: # wget https://www.cloudflare.com/static/misc/mod_cloudflare/mod_cloudflare.c Finally, install the module. Depending on your system, the command to run might be apxs or apxs2. So, run one of the below two commands. If you get a "Command not found" when running one, try the other: # apxs -a -i -c mod_cloudflare.c # apxs2 -a -i -c mod_cloudflare.c Method 3 - Server Level (Manually) (Debian/Ubuntu) (Apache with mod_cloudflare) mod_cloudflare has a few software dependencies that need to be installed first: # apt-get install libtool apache2-dev Note: If you find that you are unable to install apache2-dev then you should install: # apt-get install libtool apache2-threaded-dev Next, you should download the mod_cloudflare source to your server: # wget https://www.cloudflare.com/static/misc/mod_cloudflare/mod_cloudflare.c Finally, install the module. Depending on your system, the command to run might be apxs or apxs2. So, run one of the below two commands. If you get a "Command not found" when running one, try the other: # apxs -a -i -c mod_cloudflare.c # apxs2 -a -i -c mod_cloudflare.c Method 4 - Server Level (Manually) (NGiNX with http-realip-module) Nowadays, NGiNX should have this module built in by default, so the only thing you will have to do is add the following lines to your site's configuration: #CloudFlare set_real_ip_from 199.27.128.0/21; set_real_ip_from 173.245.48.0/20; set_real_ip_from 103.21.244.0/22; set_real_ip_from 103.22.200.0/22; set_real_ip_from 103.31.4.0/22; set_real_ip_from 141.101.64.0/18; set_real_ip_from 108.162.192.0/18; set_real_ip_from 190.93.240.0/20; set_real_ip_from 188.114.96.0/20; set_real_ip_from 197.234.240.0/22; set_real_ip_from 198.41.128.0/17; set_real_ip_from 162.158.0.0/15; set_real_ip_from 104.16.0.0/12; set_real_ip_from 172.64.0.0/13; set_real_ip_from 2400:cb00::/32; set_real_ip_from 2606:4700::/32; set_real_ip_from 2803:f800::/32; set_real_ip_from 2405:b500::/32; set_real_ip_from 2405:8100::/32; real_ip_header CF-Connecting-IP; Once you saved the configuration, be sure to restart nginx for the changes to take effect: sudo service nginx restart

How the Award System works in this new version of Webflake?

Opinions aren't facts; this thread only pertains to the latter. Don't confuse ad hominem with a direct attack either. I won't debase myself by arguing with someone who is naive enough to believe that ditching some of the world's largest companies in favor of less-successful alternates is a viable solution for every website hosted outside of America. The next bit I'm going to quote says more than enough about how sheltered a life you clearly live: Evidently you still think the year is early 2014, otherwise you'd see the stupidity in such an assessment. The Pirate Bay and EZTV have both been taken offline, only the former returning after several months of downtime. "Without issue"? If the adversity sites like TPB and EZTV have had to face isn't an "issue", then you can rest assured that the repercussions of a SOPA-style bill passing in America will certainly be that "issue" you're looking for.

Wow. Ignorance at its finest. SOPA and legislation like it are aimed at foreign websites. Evidently you haven't read the material provided above, or any material regarding such legislation (i.e. TPP). SOPA regulates the dealings between American service providers and foreign sites; most notably search engines, advertising networks, and payment processors (such as PayPal, Visa, and MasterCard). Search engines will be forced to remove listings of offending foreign sites; advertising networks will have to stop selling ads to offending sites; payment processors will have to stop processing payments from Americans for offending sites. You don't think any of this would impact European countries? In previous versions of SOPA (being discussed once more in the Trans-Pacific Partnership), DNS disruptions would become mandatory as well. Clearly, you're unaware of what ICE takedowns are. Furthermore, SOPA does not even require a complaint from a rights-holder before the US-based service providers cut off their payments, appearance in search results, or advertisements. Imagine one morning you wake up, to find your community blacklisted across the internet. You might be just outside the reach of United States judicial system but you're still under the purview of Interpol, who has been working closely with major authorities in taking down some of the internet's largest databases, such as TPB and EZTV. Please don't respond to this thread with inaccurate bullshit. The Trans-Pacific Partnership (SOPA 2.0) is a real threat, especially to WebFlake. ​I'm not responding with inaccurate bullshit. I'm responding with an opinion. If you don't know what that is, perhaps you shouldn't own a forum. Do you know what a forum is? It's a place where people express their opinions. Great going breaking your own rules by insulting members! If you think that the USA has the power to dictate Europe, you're delusional. They can go ahead and control their own companies, but they won't dare step up to powers such as Russia and China. If Google cooperates, we'll just use Yandex and Baidu. Who needs PayPal when we have Skrill? There are plenty of European alternatives to Amazon and eBay. No YouTube? We have Dailymotion. No Visa and Mastercard? We'll use UnionPay, thank you very much. Sorry, Americans, you cannot dictate us. Why do you think most of the torrent and file hosting sites are hosted in Central and Eastern-European countries and have been running without issues for years? If you host WebFlake with an American hosting company, then yeah, I agree, you might be threatened by the USA laws. If you want to feel safe, just move it to a Russian company.
