You can display the users IP addresses in posts and pages using a shortcode. It’ll help your users to know their IP address easily.
Instructions: Add the following code to the functions.php file of your WordPress theme.
function display_user_ip() {
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
return $ip;
}
add_shortcode('user_ip', 'display_user_ip');
[ip]

What are the benefits of displaying the the users I.P address in your posts and pages?
It’s just a choice, if you wanted to show someone you knew their IP. It really serves little purpose unless you’re wanting to point out, “Hey – I know where you’re coming from… here’s your address…”, or if you provide a service for your users that gives them their IP address as seen by/on the internet. Unless you have a need, I wouldn’t push that information out to the public.
