How can it show the IP address of the user in the form?

Hi, i want to let the menber know i can detect his IP to protect cheating, so the form should show the menbers' IP. I know after his summition i will receive the notificatiom including IP, but i'd like he know as well and previously. How can i do it? pl. kindly tell me.

Hello telecme,

Please be noted that there is no built in widget/feature to know the user's IP address and display it on form. 

It is easy to know the IP address with JavaScript code but since we cannot add JavaScript code in JotForm, we will have to add 3rd party HTML code to achieve your requirement. If you search google you will find multiple options but let me share two of them with you:

#1:

<p style="display: block !important; width: 160px; text-align: center; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><a href="http://addgadgets.com/ipaddress/" title="IP Address Lookup"><img src="//widget.addgadgets.com/ipaddress/" alt="IP Address Lookup0" width="160" height="102" style="border:0"></a><br><a href="http://addgadgets.com/ipaddress/" title="Find IP Address" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 12px">IP Address</a></p>

You can add the above code in a text field and it will display the IP address. Please check the screenshot below:

Please take a look at the following form where I have added both the codes:  http://form.jotformpro.com/form/43583189179974? Feel free to clone this form for a closer look. The following guide should help you in form cloning:  https://www.jotform.com/help/42-How-to-Clone-an-Existing-Form-from-a-URL 

I am also sending a feature request to our back end team to find a possibility of adding a widget to display the IP address. We will get back to you as soon as we have any update from them.

Thank you!

Hello, 

With the Get Visitor Location widget, you can get a lot more detail about the user - including geographic details about the IP Address -
