Back in the old days, there was a config variable in the config.inc called showip that would determine what level of users would get to see IP addresses.

I'm currently on 7.4, where would I find that field now? I'm assuming it got moved into the database? Maybe it's in the user permission or group permissions? And is it now just a binary value for toggle?

Control Panel » Group Management » Site Permissions
Can See Extra User Info
Select which group you want to allow and place a 1 in the field

Thanks for the reply, I was actually meaning where would I find the specific field in the database, which table and field name value.

It gets a little complicated as there are multiple values, since there will be one entry for each group which relates to that group's setting. But the field name is EXT_INFO inside of the ubbt_SITE_PERMISSIONS table.

Okay I am not sure what good this will do with threads versus classic but.
I believe the field is called EXT_INFO in the SITE_PERMISSIONS table.

Which btw is assigned to groups not users.
