Show IP-address in sent e-mail works in CF6 but not in CF7

Show IP address in emails sent from ChronoForms 7.

Overview

The {ip:} shortcode from CF6 does not work in CF7 and displays as plain text.
Use the {str:ip} shortcode instead to display the sender's IP address in the email.

Hello,
I'm getting from Chronoforms6 to Chronoforms7 with my contact forms on my website.

In CF6 I use {ip:} to inform me of the origin of the email received, to be able to block spammers from my site via het htacces file. Works great!

Now i'm converting to CF7 and this shortcode does not work here ; it shows just the shortcode ( '{ip:}' ) but not the ip-address.....

How to get the ip-address in CF7 as it is in CF6???

Thanks in advance

Hans

Thanks a lot Max!

This does the job.

May I ask you to put a CF7 Variable shortcodes on the form, as there is one for CF6?? This might help a lot for everybody.

Thanks again

Hans
