Anyone feel like making a plugin for Txp? smiles sweetly

Re: Request: IP2Nation

Mary,

I’m curious as to what people would use this for. Just displaying a message (“hello visitor from Canada”), or something more complicated than that?

Basically like that, or maybe used like an addon to comments so that you can see where your visitors come from? I dunno, it just seemed kinda neat.

I really don’t like relying on private consulting groups for this stuff…

Re: Request: IP2Nation

Current versions of Textpattern make it difficult for plugins to do useful stuff in comment forms. There’s no way to display extra information about a comment author at the moment.

Re: Request: IP2Nation

i suppose you could have it display your site in a country’s primary language (always offering a choice of english or whatever, of course).
