Hi @racson,
If you set an APP_PROXIES="127.0.0.1,127.0.0.2" option (bit with your proxy IPs) then BookStack will then pick up IPs from other common headers (like X-Forwarded-For). You can also use a value of * as a wildcard.

Looks like we need to document this somewhere, since I think it's only mentioned in this post currently.
