selectshop.at Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) I don't know, but since I've upgraded my shop to PS 1.6.0.9, or geotargeting is not working anymore, or GeoLiteCity.dat is going to bad. I've blocked some countries and I'm realising that several IP's from blocked countries are getting access to my page. The restricted country.tpl is not applying anymore in the statistic pages I'm logging (own logging module on server). I upgrade the maxmind database each mid of the month, so it is actual. Is there any better module available ? For to have a reference I don't have any problems with Wordpress Geotargeting module on my other projects. This is accurate in 100%. Prestashop accuracy lower than 30% now after the upgrade to PS 1.6.0.9. Edited November 6, 2014 by selectshop.at (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selectshop.at Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 I was making some tests. Geotargeting is not working anymore on my page since I've upgraded to PS 1.6.09. What happened with this feature ? I faced that on scripting there were some changes, but although I replaced the scripts to the old one, no changes. I blocked my country and can see catalog and prices. Yes I've deleted the browser cache. I think that there could be another bug coming from the upgrade (like that one I had - http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/376539-solvedbug-on-at-austrian-tax-invoice-block-after-upgrade-ps-1561-to-1609/) Is it possible to reset the feature to begin from zero ? Or at least to rollback only this feature to PS 1.5.3.1. version feature ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Patron Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I am not aware of any 'base' change to Geo Localization. The code is pretty simple, i.e. FrontController calls FrontController::geolocationManagement the function geolocationManagement hasn't really changed much since 1.4 days. My general feeling is that one should not use Geo Localization because the free geolitecity.dat file is only about 85% accurate, so it's highly possible that valid visitors would not be able to shop (i.e. non-resolved IP's can not shop/or see shop).
