IP Address

Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, I couldn't find anything.

Does anyone know of a way to store the customers IP address in a field when filling out a front-end form, preferably without having add additional code after installing the component?

E.g is there a way to use a hidden text field but have the customers IP as the default?

it would be useful to be able to store this as a way to reduce spam \ block specific connections.

Thanks.

Hello,

As long as IP is not a joomla standard field, you should customise the code to get the user's IP address. Through our ticket system, we provide guidelines in order to customise code to our premium users.
