Multiple account login detector (AE Detector)
Developer Last Online: Sep 2012
If you are like me and migrated from .threads, a common modification was an "AE detector", a simple mod that saved a cookie of a history of ids logged into on your site. If someone logged into more than one account, you got a PM letting you know that your site was being accessed from multiple accounts.
Over the years this was very helpful in identifying users who were posting under multiple accounts (alter-egos!) and users who would return after being banned. You might be wondering why I don't use the vbcookie call - well, thats because on logout all vB cookies are cleared, so we need to store a cookie that is not effected by the login/logout process. New Installation 1. Add New Product with attached XML 2. Go to vBulletin Options -> AE Multiple Login Detection Settings and set your specific settings. Time to install: Easy - 2 minutes. Upgrade If you installed this as a Plug-in manually, you can delete that plugin and install this Product, just make sure to go into the Options and set them accordingly. I hope you find this useful and will click INSTALL if you use it; should it prove useful to enough people I can look at making this installation more automated without the need for edits and an Admin Options page. To upgrade you will want to reimport this XML file and edit your options accordingly. 1.0.3 ----- . Added a check to ensure that users weren't deleted when reporting violations . added htmlspecialchars_uni call to username Note: I am unable to get the call to construct_phrase with $vbphrase['multiplelogin_alert'] to work reliably, as such the $message variable is still set manually inside the plug-in and not via the phrase. If anyone has an idea of why this might not always work, I'm all ears. 1.0.2 ----- . Updated to include exclusion groups, users . Changed so PM is sent by ae sender id 1.0.1 ----- . Released as a Product (thank you PHPGeek2k3 for your help) . Added option to post to a forum versus send a PM (or both) . All settings moved into Admin Option 1.0.0 ----- Initial release.

We tried a workaround for the IP issue, but it didn't work. Because of how the posting section works when you try to post as someone else it's adding their IP to your usernames history.
You would only get one report for a husband/wife as long as they weren't clearing out their cookies; once a report has been made as long as the cookie remains there would be no further reports unless they logged into a third account.

Make sure your forum ID is set correctly (and the user has access to post there). Make sure the ID number of the PM Sender/Alert poster is correct (see above). Make sure the last item of the config is ENABLED ("Enable New Thread Creation on Multiple Login Detection"). Make sure that the usergroup # and/or usernames that you're using to trigger the post/PM are NOT included in the configuration "Ignore" fields. No members have liked this post.

You probably have other mods installed that intefere with the standard thread creation process.

Is it possible to auto-ban the users detected by AE Detector?

Installed! I have a huge user base and a lot of issues with banned users returning, so this will be quite helpful. Also issues with multiple account creation. Thanks!

Hi..
I installed this Mod and working fine in my forum. But when I send warning for the members whom I found through AE Detector claim they are not having multiple accounts. No members have liked this post.
