Where does one access the IP addresses of members without going into the DB?

This is a requirement for server level blocking and SFS reporting.

I am using the one spider mentioned and it works great but, ideally the function should be integrated with WPForo and the IP address logged to postbit for admin/mod viewing. In addition to blocking and SFS reporting we have a few instances where the poster is reported to law enforcement authorities, the latter always asks for the IP address.....

We'll add IP tracking once the Forum visitor tracking feature is ready. This feature will display current online visitors and users in each forum and topic. The IP information will be available for admins in dashboard.
