Anti-IPLogger

[adiantek]

Will be avaiable anti-iplogger? For example, when user add [img], MyBB will be download with timeout to set and maximum size and It will be stored on server, like spigotmc.org has it.

PS. This is not issue, it's suggestion.

IPs aren't all that important 99% of the time. I'd be more worried about cookies getting set than anything else. If someone's really that paranoid about their IP being disclosed, VPNs are generally a pretty easy solution to that. Most people really shouldn't worry about it.

Multiple issues with the "simple" implementation of this:

• Disclosure of server IP when fetching the image
• Storage space is the limiting factor on many hosting accounts. This could eat that up really quickly.

However, I do agree that having, for example, better compatibility with proxies like Camo (which we use with community.mybb.com) could mostly solve this problem. However, this requires a competent server admin to maintain the system, while most of the MyBB user base isn't.

If you have forum for server game (for example minecraft server), IP shouldn't be avaiable for other users. It could be simple option in MyBB ACP. [img] can be also in PMs (conversions).

@adiantek: I think this is better as a plugin.

MyBB 2.0 will support resource proxies: https://community.mybb.com/thread-191635.html It's possible that we'll also include an internal proxy script for setting up secure boards quickly and for those without heavy traffic.
