The plugin is not written for the end user but, according to author, for other plugin authors to use. So, if you were interested in implementing such a function, I guess it would be possible.</p> <p><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ip-to-country/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ip-to-country/</a></p> <p>My thought was that if the user was in Thailand, he could be set as user role "Member" and, if not, "Non-Member." (I'd create these new roles beforehand, of course.).</p> <p>Just an idea. Thanks! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/user-registration-add-on-resolve-map-ip-address#post-15967 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 13:09:44 +0000 Carl Hancock 15967@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Gravity Forms does not do any kind of reverse lookup on an IP address to determine the country/location. This requires a database of locations in order to do this, typically via an API with a 3rd party service that has the geo data. We don't do this. So currently this wouldn't be possible.</p> <p>Also, the User Registration Add-On doesn't have an approval process. Users are registered right away. The only approval process you could do is setting the user role to a temporary role you create, and then when you approve the user you manually change their user role.</p> <p>We plan on adding approval capabilities in a future release. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/user-registration-add-on-resolve-map-ip-address#post-15943 Tue, 11 Jan 2011 06:18:29 +0000 Aquanauts 15943@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello again guys,</p> <p>Trying out the User Reg add-on. Super happy you guys made this.</p> <p>I have a question I'm sure the answer currently is NO for, but wanted to check and see if it can be added as a feature later.</p> <p>I have a need to determine which country a user is registering in. (Yes, I could ask, but people lie.)</p> <p>I want to make a Conditional Registration field so that if the user is anywhere EXCEPT here in Thailand, the user would be registered automatically. </p> <p>Anyone registering in Thailand would need to be manually approved, but I'm trying to automate as much as possible of the process.</p> <p>Now, I know GF collects IP addresses. Does it also somehow collect the network name / location of the IP address? Anyway to resolve those IPs and map it as country?</p> <p>Would be very handy. </p>
