patch with 'patch -P0 < ConfirmEditWhitelistIP.patch' from /extensions/ConfirmEdit

This is a feature I found useful on a Wiki I run. In my case, to allow all edits from my school's subnet.

It works by specifying an array of regexes to match against IP addresses, if the address matches the edit is allowed.

Seems reasonable.
Comment 2 Brion Vibber 2007-07-03 21:09:09 UTC
It seems a bit odd to me to use a regex for an IP list.
It would seem cleaner to use existing (hopefully ;) functions for CIDR IP ranges.

There's nothing in PHP, but there seems to be something buried in /includes/IP.php ;)
Comment 4 Brion Vibber 2007-07-05 19:49:30 UTC
Looks good -- works for individual IPs as well as ranges, nice!

Applied in r23758, with some tweaks to the doc comment.
