    Hi. I’ve just discovered that users’ countries are no longer being detected correctly. We have people from around the world visiting the site and they are all being detected as being from “United States”.

    I wonder if the ip2nation database needs to be refreshed – but how can we do this? It would be useful to have a “Refresh ip2nation database” button on the settings screen.

    In the mean time is there a way to manually force the refresh of the database, to see if that is the problem?

    (Note – I do not have any caching on the site and we’re not using Cloudflare.)

    Thanks

    Cancel that … the site is hosted with HostMonster and it appears they’ve decided to push everything through a proxy server … which is causing all traffic to come from an USA IP address.
