I think that comment was a comment-spammer that notified me that he’s going to spam my site unless I unregister from his “service” via email.
*shakes head*
It gets worse every day ...
Concerning the IP.  This should be doable if I pass it from EE to the javascript. I don’t think you can capture the IP directly with JS.
I might give it a thought when I find the time.

Was that comment directed to me? I have no idea what you’re talking about. Sorry.

One suggestion.

You should capture and display the IP of the person that linked out. it would really help to establish if it’s more than one person using the link or one person that simply clicks it many times throughout the day.

For instance. I’ve got a contributor that also has a link to his site on my front page. I suspect he’s clicking it frequently as a simple way to get back to his page. Not that it’s wrong, I would do the same thing. but I’d like to be able to show that so when i see the report I can filter.

It’d also be great to be able to add IPs to a filter list that wouldn’t track.

Do I ask for too much or what

Thanks for the help on this.

It’s working great now. Very handy. It’s important to me because it allows me to accurately account for my outgoing links. when people tell me how much traffic they get from my site I can be sure I know whether they’re being honest or not

That’s the thing with the extra ? in the URL.
If it’s turned on I suppose it’s turned on for a reason.

Anyways, the updated mod.linktracker.php takes that into account.
