Real IP with/through NGINX reverse proxy

Hi there. I've been using VestaCP since not long ago and have found that neither the forum or CMS register the real IP of my visitors.
I wonder how to register the real IP of my visitors and not the IP of the server itself (the same with NGINX reverse proxy and Apache).
I have installed version 0.9.8-10 of VestaCP on Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS 64-bits
Thank you very much in advance. A greeting.

Yes, I have tried to do just that, but I see is configured in VestaCP by default, but I dont know because it doesn't works correctly. I dont know if it is a bug or some kind of problem I have VestaCP. I have installed VestaCP on several servers and they all give me the same problem (without change configurations).
I still dont know how to fix it or what might be wrong.

I still have the same problem. The only solution I've found, example for WordPress, is adding:
Code: Select all
if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'])) {
$ips = explode(',', $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']);
$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] = $ips[0];
}
in a functions.php file. Is there any solution to this? I still do not know because it shows me the IP reverse proxy and not the IP of the user connecting to the web.
