[edit] What can this extension do?

I added a code to Daniel Friesen's version of rudeproxyblock which blocks IP ranges and specific Ip address's from accessing the wiki. After installing it, you can add any IP to the list by going to MediaWiki:Openproxylist and adding to the page ( separated by a line ).

[edit] Usage

To use the extension create a list of Ip address's at MediaWiki:Openproxylist on your wiki (One IP per line, no extra text on those lines). Any IP listed there will not be allowed to edit or view pages and will be redirected to Special:RudeProxyBlock and will have a message displayed to them (When viewed from a normal IP the page is just a link back to the Main Page). You can customize the title using MediaWiki:Rudeproxyblock and the message using MediaWiki:Rudeproxyblockmsg.

[edit] Installation

Download the files and upload them to the /extensions directory of your wiki. Then add the following code to localsetting.php in the root directory of the wiki. For any help, leave a message on the talk page of this page.

[edit] Changes to LocalSettings.php

require_once("$IP/extensions/RudeProxyBlock.php");
