Restricting access by country

[vio]

Hi all,

I need to allow users of one specifc country only to create/open a new ticket. Eg. only users from UK to have access to the web PAGE to create tickets.

However i want all users irrespective of country of origin to visit the WEBSITE.

Please if soneone can let me know how to do this.

Thank you.

you could try looking at this:

if you are running apache this should help.

Add this to main.inc.php or client.inc.php.

PHP Code:

$geo = unserialize(file_get_contents("http://www.geoplugin.net/php.gp?ip=" . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']));
if($geo['geoplugin_countryCode'] != "UK")
{
    die("You cannot create a ticket.");
}
