GDPR and IP collection

Hi,
By disabling IP address, some feature will work "not good" for guest, example: voting, limit posting...etc. Do you sure want to turn off it?

Hi. On my case I accept votes and comments only from registered users who are logged in.
So, yes, I would definitely prefer to turn off IP tracking, since guests are excluded. How can this be done?

Hi,
Please open file administrator/components/com_jlexreview/libs/helper.php
Find phrase:
In line 185, you will see:
public static function ip_address()
{
...
}
Now, modify it to:
public static function ip_address()
{
return '0.0.0.0';
}
Hope can help you!

Thanks for the quick reply. I just made the change.
One question: will this change stop the collection of the IPs of registered users also? This is essential too.

Yes, this code apply for both (guest & member) .

It works great, thank you very much!

One last question:
I've deleted many registered users records in the site backend (those users that haven't visited the site for a very long time). I noticed that these userIDs were not removed from the table j25_jlexreview_users. How can we do this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
At the weekend, I will release plugin to sync user between joomla & jlex review .

Thank you very much!

Hi,
You can download plugin at here: https://www.jlexart.com/documentation/jlex-review-integration . Name of plugin is User - JLex Review plugin

Thanks.
FYI:
I installed the plugin, I clicked the 'Sync Users' button and I saved it. Then I checked the number of users in the j25_jlexreview_users table. The first time I clicked the 'Sync Users' button, the number dropped, but it was still much bigger than the number of my registered users. I had to click the 'Sync Users' button three times to make the number of users in the j25_jlexreview_users table come close to the number of users. Thanks.
