[3.2][ALPHA] Anonymize IPs (GDPR)

Post by 3Di »

Extension Name: Anonymize IPs
Vendor: phpBB Studio

Extension Description: Let's set to a custom IP of choice (default 127.0.0.1) for every user board-wide from now on. There will be a planned custom ACP where to chose which of the old data will be anonymized, like Logs, Topics, Pms, etc...

This is the basic version that allows you to make anonymous the IP of any user (including yours) from the time of installation. One special note: after enabling it you will be thrown out of the ACP, this is normal. You need to login again and that's it.

Extension Version: 1.0.0-alpha

Extension Download: Here!

For what this extension is for
Extension Description: Let's set to a custom IP of choice (default 127.0.0.1) for every user board-wide from now on. There is a custom ACP where to chose which of the old data will be anonymized, like Logs, Topics, Pms, etc...
I see we can do everything as per the above descro using just one event and one function, as a matter of facts.

I could be wrong though. :)
Before/after the final coding starts your feedback is welcome, suggestions and criticism as well.

TIA. :)

Installing this extension each IP stored by phpBB from now on will be anonymized, means a fake IP the same for every user.

This happens since the installation.

About those already stored (old) real IPs instead, they can be anonymized at once or on a per admin choice, you will be able to select which table to anonymize. Tables involved are in a range of 6/9, I am doing preliminary investigation/test.

At the end of all you are not anymore owner of any IP and you can state/declare that in your Privacy Policy, for which there are other extensions.

Extra features aren't planned, it's a simple yet useful extension without "bells and whistles".

Releasing the very basic version 1.0.0-alpha, see first post.

This is the basic version that allows you to make anonymous the IP of any user (including yours) from the time of installation.
One special note: after enabling it you will be thrown out of the ACP, this is normal. You need to login again and that's it.


I don't have to tell you that's the Alpha stage, in any case: extensions in development should NOT be used on LIVE boards. :geek:

Will there be an update for phpBB 3.3 ?

The selected extension cannot be enabled, check the extension's requirements.

The requested file, dtst-anonymize_ip.json, could not be found.

AFAIR there's another extension, already validated for 3.3.
I'm not sure what the difference is (this one seems to allow custom defining the fake IP).

Found it: crizzo_ipanonym_1_0_3 validated for phpBB 3.3.0
Spelling is freeware, which means you can use it for free.
On the other hand, it is not open source, which means you cannot change it or publish it in a modified form.
