User IP in template.

I want to display the IP adress of the person currently browsing the site in a page template. How do I do this?

wow excellent support, an extension on the fly ;) I could have built this myself but I wondered if there were any preset template variables I didn't know of.

thank you!

@Sander: You are welcome ;) One note here, to avoid issues with view cache you will need to disable view cache for your template and use {cache-blocks} if you will not do it this all your users will see only one IP, as long as you clear view cache.

{set-block scope=root variable=cache_ttl}0{/set-block}

{def $server_vars=ezservervars()}

{$server_vars['REMOTE_ADDR']}

{cache-block}
//rest of your tpl code
{/cache-block}

@John: Works fine here. Do you have any errors? Did you clear the cache?
Have you tried this code in your template?

{def $server_vars=ezservervars()} 
 
{$server_vars|attribute( show,1 )}

@John: Did you enable the extension in admin interface? Which eZ publish version do you use?

Follow this steps:

1. put ezservers dir in ezpublish/extension
2. enable extension in Setup->Extensions
3. Clear all cache
4. put in pagelayout

{def $server_vars=ezservervars()}

{$server_vars['REMOTE_ADDR']}

5. Check your page.

Works fine on eZ publish 3.7.2. Are you sure that you followed all steps correctly?
