To setup All-in-One GDPR: No Comment IP Addresses you will need to open the plugin's settings page. You can get to this page by hovering over the 'Settings' tab in the admin menu and then click on 'No Comment IP Addresses' from the sub-menu.
You can either set the plugin to be enabled or disabled. When disabled the plugin will not change any new comment's IP addresses. When enabled the plugin will use the wp_insert_comment hook, when a new comment is submitted the hook will replace the IP with the default IP address.
You can set the default IP address by updating the text field labelled 'Default IP address'. When the plugin is enabled and when you purge the column 'comment_author_IP' will be set to this value.
If you already have comments on your WordPress site, the 'purge' tool will loop through all existing commnets and will make sure that the comment_author_IP does not contain any IP address for all existing commnets.
