<p>From the Cloudflare Support website:</p>
<p>Q: Why do my server logs show Cloudflare’s IPs using Cloudflare?</p>
<p>A: When you sign on to Cloudflare the way your logs are displayed will change because Cloudflare<br />
   acts as a proxy. This means that your visitors are routed through the Cloudflare network. This<br />
   allows Cloudflare to stop attacks before they reach your network. It also allows Cloudflare to<br />
   speed up page load time by more efficiently routing packets and, more importantly, caching<br />
   static resources (images, javascript, css, etc.) on a very fast connection. However, as a<br />
   result, the connecting IP will always come from the Cloudflare network.</p>
<p>As a result, commenters’ IP will also be masked by Cloudflare. Luckily, Cloudflare sends the real<br />
user’s IP in a separate header. This plugin saves it, as well as the user’s geo-location (also<br />
provided by Cloudflare), and displays this information in the admin panel.</p>
<p>Note that when the blog is served directly to the internet (not through Cloudflare), anyone can<br />
spoof any IP address and geo-location by specifying any value in the request headers.</p>


Real IP and Geo for Cloudflare

The plugin saves and displays visitors' real IP and location, instead of Cloudflare's.

<p>This plugin displays the memory limit, current memory usage, WordPress Memory Limit, IP address and PHP version in the admin footer.</p>
<p>There are four features we love:</p>
<p>1) You can easily see in the admin footer the IP where this WordPress installation is running. Very useful if you have many WordPress installations across several servers and IP addresses.</p>
<p>2) The memory usage and total available memory to the WordPress installation is shown in the admin footer. If memory usage is over 75% the percentage is shown in a light red and if the memory usage is over 90% the percentage is shown in red. So you can allways control with one look if there is enough memory available or if action has to be taken. It also displays the WordPress memory limit to give you more information.</p>
<p>3) Besides the IP address and the memory you can also see the PHP version and the type of Operating System where it’s running.</p>
<p>4) You can translate the plugin into your own language. So far English and Spanish translations are included. Just translate the .po file in the /lang/ folder.</p>
<h4>What can I do with this plugin?</h4>
<p>This plugin displays the total memory, used memory, percentage of used memory, WP memory limit, the IP address and the PHP version in the admin footer.</p>
<h4>What ideas is this plugin based on?</h4>
<p>We had been using the WordPress plugin <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-memory-usage/" title="WP-Memory-Usage" rel="ugc">WP-Memory-Usage</a> but didn’t want the dashboard widget and needed the IP address displayed. We also didn’t like that the plugin could not be translated.</p>
<p>This is why we decided to create a new plugin that solves these two explained needs: IP address display and ability to translate.</p>
<h4>System requirements</h4>
<p>PHP version 5.3 or greater.</p>
<h4>Server IP & Memory Usage Display Plugin in your Language!</h4>
<p>This first release is avaliable in English and Spanish. In the “lang” folder we have included the necessarry files to translate this plugin.</p>
<p>If you would like the plugin in your language and you’re good at translating, please drop us a line at <a href="http://apasionados.es/contacto/index.php?desde=wordpress-org-ip-address-memory-usage-home" rel="nofollow ugc">Contact us</a>.</p>

Server IP & Memory Usage Display

I just found this plugin after migrating a client site and having problems with the DNS updates not reporting the proper site IP. Installed this and was able to confirm to the client that their site had, indeed, been moved to their new server. The proof was right there in the footer with their new IP address.  I think this is going to be a must-use type of plugin for many of my client sites. 

This provides AWESOME data

Show the memory limit, current memory usage and IP address in the admin footer.
