IP Redirect Issue

Hello all,

Currently using Joomla 1.6.5 (I want to upgrade but not my call) and using MetaMod v3.7, 2011-10-03. It's for www.piratespress.com.

Currently have the rule set:
if ( $geoip->"EU" ) return 367;
if ( $geoip->"NA" ) return 315;

However, it doesn't work as I'd like and the same page (315) shows up no matter what the location.

Any ideas/suggestions? I screenshot the settings in the module manager and it's identical to what's in the menu manager for MetaMod. You can download them here - http://www.piratespressrecords.com/MetaMod.zip

Thanks!

Re: IP Redirect Issue

Hi Christian,

the syntax is slightly wrong. I guess from the example you gave that you want to detect "continent" rather than country. In that case, ensure you do the following:

1 - use the GeoLiteCity database rather than the GeoIPCountry database.
2 - the following PHP:

if ( $geoip->continent_code == "EU" ) return 367;
if ( $geoip->continent_code == "NA" ) return 315;

Hope that helps,
Stephen
