Remove IP it’s a really-really-simple plugin to not log the IP address from the people that comment on your wordpress
installation.
This plugin will be useful to people that cannot/or don’t want to use libapache2-mod-removeip (because you don’t use
apache or don’t want to wipe out the IP logging on all vhosts).
The plugin does exactly what its name suggests: it removes the IP address from new comments on your blog – not more and not less.
Thanks a lot Guido!
I was just digging into WordPress to understand the Comments-Machine, when I saw this IP-Saving and was wondering about it. I was wondering, if I should write exactly the Plugin you did already. Now, I know, no need to. Thanks a lot.
