Summary

In default, DokuWiki sometimes show IPs of those who are not logging in.

For example, recent changes or old revisions are shown like this:

2018/05/27 12:39  pagename – Summary. XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX -xxx B
2018/05/22 23:54  pagename – Summary. username ±0 B

But some people think that IPs shouldn't be shown to public.
This plugin tries to replace such IPs with alternative texts (A User Not Logged in in default).

Admins can view IPs even with this plugin.

Installation

Search and install the plugin using the Extension Manager. Refer to Plugins on how to install plugins manually.

Examples/Usage

It doesn't need any additional settings.
After you install this plugin, it'll automatically hide IPs in:

The plugin will rewrite only superficial data, core data won't be overwritten.

When to run this plugin can be specified on the config (see Configuration and Settings).

Helper Plugin Option

You can use the localization of the alternative text used by this plugin.
Here is a sample of the code:

if (!isset($_SERVER['REMOTE_USER'])) {
    if(!plugin_isdisabled('hidingip')) {
        $hidingip = plugin_load('helper', 'hidingip');
        $user = $hidingip->altText();  // "$hidingip->getLang('notloggedin')" works similarly
}

A practical sample can be seen in the program of my Autotweet2 plugin (Here).

How IPs are Replaced

In Recent Changes and Old Revisions

When $event->data->_content['(number)']['class'] has 'user', there is an user name or an IP address in $event->data->_content['(the next number)'].
Thus this plugin detects the 'user' texts, and substitutes TRUE for $flag if found.
If the $flag is TRUE, this plugin will check whether or not there is an IP in the texts. If found, it'll be hidden .
But, the first item of the old revision is different a little from others, so there is some customizing.

In Showing Diffs

The function is similar to that in recent changes and old revisions, but it'll modify HTML directly.

In Last Modified and Page Locking

:!: UPDATED
If $event->data['username'] is likely to be an IP, the plugin will write $event->data['name'].
:!: You can't use the user name like IPs (that'll be accidentally replaced. e.g.: 3.57.2.13 ).1)

Configuration and Settings

You can change the following setting by using the Configuration Manager.
