IP Locator is a country and language detection tool for WordPress. It is fast, reliable and plug & play. It can detect and render the country, the main language and the country flag of each visitor of your site. It provides: a strong, accurate and ultra-fast IP and country detection; many shortcodes to display country names, languages and flags (emoji or vectorized); a shortcode to conditionally hide or show strings or other shortcodes; a CSS modifier to add a country-specific class to the body tag of your site; an automatic system to be always up to date (no API key, no IP data files to manually import); a full-featured API for plugins / themes developers. For full details, you can browse the shortcodes list or the API description (for developers). IP Locator can be used too to report the following main items and characteristics: KPIs: number of detected countries and languages, accesses breakdown and detection ratio; countries for real humans with public IPs; languages for real humans with public IPs; metrics variations; metrics distributions; full list of countries per channel; full list of countries per client (requires the free Device Detector plugin). Technically, IP Locator: works on dedicated or shared servers; can detect the source IP even behind proxies or load-balancers; can use AWS CloudFront, Cloudflare and Apache mod_geoip to speed-up detection; natively supports APCu caching(1) and all other dedicated object caching mechanisms, like Memcached or Redis; has a minimal footprint in the page rendering time; runs its data updates in background, without impact on the website speed; is fully compatible with multisites; natively supports names and languages localizations(2). (1): APCu needs to be activated on your server if you want to use it in IP Locator. (2): PHP Intl extension needs to be activated on your server if you want to use it in IP Locator. IP Locator uses IP data I curate myself and I publish via my own servers exclusively for IP Locator. Data is CC0 licensed. IP Locator accesses this service on a regular basis (if the option is checked) to maintain an up-to-date version of the data. IP Locator supports an extensive set of WP-CLI commands to: get location detail: see wp help location describe for details; display IP Locator status: see wp help location status for details; toggle on/off main settings: see wp help location settings for details; display location and languages statistics: see wp help location analytics for details. For a full help on WP-CLI commands in IP Locator, please read this guide.
