Costum IP - Hide yourself

[Nitrome]

Hello there


I was wondering, can I totally fake my IP address by modifying the get_ip(); function in /inc/functions.php ? (the related file: https://github.com/mybb/mybb/blob/master....php#L3000 )

I tried to add this in the bottom of the get_ip(); function (just before the "return $ip;" )

if($mybb->user['uid'] == '3456')
{
	$ip = '64.233.184.94';
}

where 3456 is my user identifiant, and 64.233.184.94 a fake IP address, I want to replace the real one only for me...


But it doesn't work... (of course I have added the line "global $db;" at the top of the function get_ip(); )

Can you help me please ?
