Hello,

Is it possible to base user or site permissions based on the users IP address?
 
For example let's say I have a website that provides information of different regulations in different countries. And I want a user who is based in Canada to be able to click on a link or a page; and be automaticly directed to a different webpage based on his IP to the infomation he would need. Another user who is based in Germany, access the same inital page but is automatically redirected to a different page containing regulations based in Germany.

So to it all break down
User 1 accesses Webpage 1 with Canadian IP gets automatically directed to Webpage 2
User 2 accesses Webpage 1 with German IP gets automatically directed to Webpage 3.
User 3 accesses Webpage 1 with Chinese IP gets automatically directed to Webpage 4.
And so forth

Is this possible to do within DNN?

Thanks,

Dean

you can do it using GeoIP database, which is included with dotnetnuke and suggests proper country for new registrants. You will, however, need to code your own redirection module.

Thanks for the heads up there Sebastian.

Probably going to have look around for some existing modules before I break something trying to code my own. Just needed the hope that it was possible.

If anyone else knows a module that already this, please don't hestiate to post it.

Regards

Dean.

I got to know a couple of modules redirecting per language, but haven't seen one per IP address yet.
