I have been through some old posts on here to find a way of hiding the ip addresses shown under each user that makes a post in the comments, but none of them work.

I wish for them to not be displayed as there are mods and admins that I don’t think should be able to see them.

Please can you tell me how I can hide the IP addresses?

It won’t cause spam users as I used a plugin that shows me spammers and sploggers.

Thank you

I have tried all of the old advice that you have given other users with the same problem but they are out of date.

.your_ip_related_class {
display: none !important;
}

That should work.. just make sure you change “.your_ip_related_class” to the correct CSS class.

Thank you,

Sorry where do I put this?

[@koreancandy Participant 11 years, 10 months ago]

Sorry to be a pain, I am not sure where to add this code

[@zilveer Participant 11 years, 10 months ago]

You will need to add that code to your template CSS-file.

[@jaredatch Member 11 years, 10 months ago]

The quickest thing would be to add it to your theme’s `style.css`.

Thank you very much for your help.

I have added the code you gave me into my themes style.css and nothing changes, Admins can still see the IP addresses of users 🙁

You can remove ip address by using the below custom code in the functions.php file of your child theme or in another custom plugin.

function vvd_no_view_ip( $author_ip, $r, $args ){
	return __return_empty_string();	
}
add_filter('bbp_get_author_ip','vvd_no_view_ip', 10, 3 );
