When orders are being posted into our web forms, our web form technology will automatically pick up the standard IP Address that the orders are being posted from, and then it posts that IP Address within the orders into the sticky.io Platform.

However, if you would like to place a different IP Address for the orders you are posting, instead of using the standard IP Address that our system will automatically pick up, then you can use a custom hidden field within each of your web forms that you download from sticky.io Platform.

In most cases you would only use this field where you might have a script that is collecting data first and then posting the data to our web forms. In that case you can include this custom field, in the example below, in each of your web forms and it will use the IP address you populate within the value instead of the IP address that is posting into our web forms.

 Example:

<input type="hidden" name="ipAddress" value="123.123.123.123"/>

You would replace the value with the IP address you would like to enforced to be used.
