Hello!

My IP doesn't show up in LCC or in the forums, but that could be because when I check my own IP address, it comes back as IPv6 - something that might warrant a look-see, or I might just have to use 'Use IPv4 addresses only' to connect...

The code being used to show the ip isn't taking ipv6 into consideration I think, needs to be looked into.


Also, I think the screenshots of control center with ip's are bad. Even more so with ipv6... it can contain some nasty hardware info. Which can ofc be used against folks. Maybe some kind of psa for users needs to be in place... show some caution with sharing ip's.

I'm with you on this. It's kinda risky to use screenshot + ip's. What we need is just a status. "Active" when connected and "Not Connected".
I just managed to fix all the issues with ip-adress information.
But maybe we should remove them for user safety.
If someone uses NAT in a Virtual machine this will print out the exact internet IP address of the computer. Not a good combination with screenshooter definitely.

Actually, what might be worth considering in the future is a click to reveal type thing. There is a bit of css already to expand content. Damned if I remember what line tho lol. So that the element with the ip is only shown when clicked, and the status is default. How to do this escapes me atm, but worth doing in the todo list.
