Hi

We’ve just finished writing another EE extension.

What FreeForm does not support out of the box is providing information about where the visitor who just filled out your form comes from or what his IP address is. Sure, you can define an IP field in FreeForm and a hidden input field in your form that will pass the IP through the form so that you can include it in your admin emails. With this extension, you have the possibility to either automatically append not only the IP address of your visitor, but also the location data belonging to that IP address. You can also use the {ip_location_data} in those admin email templates you want to have location data included while turning of the automatically append feature.

Be sure to check it out http://www.designchuchi.ch/index.php/blog/comments/dc-freeform-geoip-extension/.

This is the initial public release, so if some bugs arise, drop us a line.
