I'm asking for something like this: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-useragent/

You want this on every post?

acoda · June 2012

Yes.

Because each post (presumably) is for a new user from his/her diverse PC.

Ideal: when a user post a new comment, 2 (or more) icons are displayed on his/her post:

Icon of his/her browser
icon of his/her OS.

there should be some http context information you can pick up through the envirnment similar to this which can be used to get the end point IP address:


function getIP() { 
$ip; 
if (getenv("HTTP_CLIENT_IP")) 
$ip = getenv("HTTP_CLIENT_IP"); 
else if(getenv("HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR")) 
$ip = getenv("HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"); 
else if(getenv("REMOTE_ADDR")) 
$ip = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR"); 
else 
$ip = "UNKNOWN";
return $ip;

cPanel normally logs user's actions as in IP, Date, Time, OS, Browser, etc. can it be usable?

it's the same information that the code i mentioned before is getting from the http header...

are you suggesting you think parsing the log file on the webserver is going to be easier that querying the http header for the request?

Actually No, I said that because I didn't get this phrase: "pick up through the envirnment"

getenv - get environment...

Howdy, Stranger!
