Are you using CloudFlare? Have you properly configured it for that?
No, but i use HTTP Proxy

I set the voting thing on index page , and i set my return url to index page.
After voting i want to just return to index page

but it doesnt work and it gives error {Redirect loop}

Are you getting their real IP from behind that proxy? Votes are validated based on the users IP, and it's essential that you are validating their IP, and not the proxies IP.
What do you mean im getting their real ip from behind that proxy? the users ip?

Make a file called "ip.php" or something, and put the following:
PHP:
<?php

echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
Do you see your IP? or do you see your (HTTP) proxies IP?

Your best way to counter this is to simply have your voting only on the client page and use this.



With a novote GET check (So when they redirect from FindRetros the script will not be called if the parameter is set).

This way everyone will be able to connect without any issues.

What kind of HTTP proxy is it?
Reverse proxy

Search for
PHP:
$_SERVER['HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP']
And replace all of them with
PHP:
$_SERVER['HTTP_X_REAL_IP']
in findretros.php

Could you please create "ip.php" and add the following:
PHP:
<?php

echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . '<br>';
echo $_SERVER['HTTP_X_REAL_IP'];

And then link me to it?


its not the real ip btw, its proxy ip
