Hi. I would like to change the website to this: http://whatismyipaddress.com/

How would I go about doing that? uTrace isn't all that accurate and it doesn't seem to work with IPv6 all that well.

Edit-


Figured it out! It's in the event/listener.php file at the bottom and I used http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/

This doesn't work (page not found). Any other site?

Works fine. I just tested it on 3.2.4 and uTrace pops right up.

Utrace shows the map but it is dark colored and says "This page can't load Google Maps correctly". Also there is a water mark on the map saying "For development purposes only".

So change it to what you would prefer to use

I'm sorry Rich, I don't understand. The message I'm getting (This page can't load Google maps... and For development...) is it related to my system or is there a problem with Utrace site (expired API...)?
Using the link/site mentioned in the first post (here) doesn't work right.

That's a uTrace problem, if you don't want to use uTrace then open the listener file within the extension and find this line

'POSTER_IP_WHOIS' => "http://en.utrace.de/?query=" . $poster_ip,

and replace it with this

'POSTER_IP_WHOIS' => "https://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/" . $poster_ip,

pay attention to the find and replace.

You'll then get something like this for the popup

It worked!
Thank you.

first let me say that i love this extension and have been using it for quite a while, so thank you very much RMcGirr83!

for me utrace was having issues with ipv6 ip addresses, it was returning a not found or error message, don't remember which, so i change the link to keycdn ("https://tools.keycdn.com/geo?host=") and it's working like a charm, and it's much faster than utrace (on my system at least)!

There's a whole plethora of one's out there. Just have to choose which one you want to use. I'm glad you're enjoying the extension.
