Detect & display Country in notification to administrator?

  1. I know you can add additional info to the notification emails, like the user's IP address, user agent, etc.

    I'm wondering if there's a way to detect where in the world (country) the user is and display that? I don't want to add a Country field to form. I want to find out their country "behind the scenes".

    I know it's possible to geolocate an IP address using sites like this: http://www.ipligence.com/geolocation ...Is it somehow possible to build this geolocation into Gravity Forms?

    Probably requires a customization, but just figured I'd ask.

    Thanks!

    It would require customization, and Gravity Forms in and of itself wouldn't have any way of knowing which country and which IP go together. You could totally have an intermediate level PHP developer knock this out for you though.
