Patch avatar url upload

First you want to go to inc/functions.php, at line 5584 (May be different if you use google SEO), you will look for a function called "fetch_remote_file". This function allows for a douchebag to get the real IP address of the forum.
In order to stop this, we will use this code.

This is within the section that says if(function_exists("curl_init")) for those of you who have edited their functions.php file, Insert the following at or near the beginning of this block.





Replace the IP address and port with the corresponding ones of your proxy. If it's an HTTP proxy, replace CURLPROXY_SOCKS5 with CURLPROXY_HTTP.

:yus:

" This function allows for a douchebag to get the real IP address of the forum."

you can also.. ehm... disable avatar uploading from a URL :rly: but this works as well.
