GeoIP

• With GeoIP you can associate your visitors to an country using the IP address.
• On options page you can update you current visits. This take a while! The Script checks 100 IP addresses at once an reload itself until less then 100 addresses left. Click the update button to check the rest.
• If the rest remains greater than 0 the IP address is not in GeoIP database (accuracy 99.5%).
• You can update the GeoIP database from time to time to get new IP data. This necessitates write permissions to wp-content/count-per-day-geoip directory.
• If the automatically update don't work download GeoIPv6.dat.gz, extract and rename it to GeoIP.dat and load it to the count-per-day-geoip directory.
• More information about GeoIP on http://www.maxmind.com
