Forum showing same IP for all members

[WrzAddiction]

In my forum after i transferred the host it is showing the same IP (which is currently the IP of the host) for all users

SCREENSHOT



I tried banning the IP address and all users got banned

Any solution?
Is it a host-side problem or a problem in my DB?

Are you using Reverse Proxy or your host
That ip is your server ip

Host is probably using some sort of reverse proxy but not using appropriate mods to change $_SERVER['REQUEST_ADDR'] accordingly.

I am not sure about which header they do use.

Can you please upload a php file with

<?php
header("Content-Type: text/plain");
var_dump($_SERVER);
exit();
?>

Execute it via browser and post output here?
(Remember to look for your IP address and remove it )

Add this to configuration file, right after <?php in a new line.

$_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"] = ( isset($_SERVER["HTTP_X_REAL_IP"]) ? $_SERVER["HTTP_X_REAL_IP"]  : $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"] ); 

Report the outcome

Your host use nginx as a reverse proxy for serving static content. They probably found some poorly auto installer that installed it without mod_rpaf so you see the same IP's for all members/visitors.
