Description
Is it possible to use geocode module for anonymous users? I would like to use it for redirecting anonymous to some pages depending on IP info.
#1
#2
subscribe
#3
should be able to store info with current table using uid of zero, and having an alternate lookup on the ip addr.
#4
+1 for this feature being part of the module.
Correct me if I am wrong, but I don't know if frankcarey's suggestion would work if there is more than 1 anonymous user logged in.
Perhaps it would be better to store the information for anonymous users in a session cookie. Does anyone have any better ideas on how this could be implemented?
#5
a cookie might be good, logged in or not, but you should be able to store location info for the ipaddress itself since uid=0 wouldn't be unique. Cookies may be an issue on multi sites that share tables since the domains of each site may be different.
#6
Rather than place another cookie couldn't you just store the geo info in the php session that is already created by drupal?
#7
Anyone managed to find a work-around or alternative?
