I want you to help me check my code

if (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'], ',')>0) {
$addr = explode(",",$_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']);
return trim($addr[0]);
} else {
return $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];

}
else {
return $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
}

curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
$response = curl_exec($curl_handle);
curl_close($curl_handle);
var_dump($response);

help me get location url from reply header
You need to get info from your Curl request, and get the header from there.
Here is your code:
$ip = getUserIP() ;
$data = 'done=true&submit=Download+Now';
$headers = array(
$data,
'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
'Referer: http://thgss.com/index.php?p=download2',
'X-Forwarded-For: '. $ip
);
$curl_handle=curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_URL,'http://thgss.com/index.php?p=download3');
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 2);
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);
curl_setopt($curl_handle,CURLOPT_USERAGENT,'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/70.0.3538.102 Safari/537.36');
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
$response = curl_exec($curl_handle);
curl_close($curl_handle);
var_dump($response);
Before your curl_close, add the following:
$curl_info = curl_getinfo($curl_handle);
You can then use preg_match to find your location header:
$headers = substr($response, 0, $curl_info["header_size"]);
preg_match('#Location: (.*)#', $headers, $location);
You should then find your Location header in $location, probably $location[1].
On a side note, is that the user's Username and Password you're sending in the header?
Edit:
Since the original question has been changed since I answered this, I am now editing my answer.
To help you debug any errors with the actual curl request, before curl_close you can add:
$errs = curl_error($curl_handle);
$errs will now provide you with any reasons the curl request may be failing. An example error is:
"Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with known CA certificates"
You can read more in the docs:
http://php.net/manual/en/function.curl-error.php
Edit 2:
After you said you have a timeout issue,I now notice that you have used 2 seconds:
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 2);...
Try increasing your timeout:
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 30);
curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30);
You can also use 0 which is to wait indefinitely.
