Hello,

As far as I know, it is not possible to limit how many times a user can post in one day.

Hello,

Yes, it's possible by JavaScript, but it can be bypassed if you disable it. Try this :
Administration Panel > Modules > JavaScript codes management > Create a new script

Title : Your choice
Placement : In all the pages
Paste the code below :
Code:
$(function() {
  var perDay = 20,
  errorMsg = 'You\'ve reached the maximum number of posts per day.';
  
  if (localStorage.postExp > +new Date - 24*60*60*1000 && Math.abs(localStorage.postsThen - _userdata.user_posts) >= perDay) $('form[action="/post"] input[type="submit"]').click(function() {alert(errorMsg); return false});
  else if (localStorage.postExp === undefined) {
    localStorage.postsThen = _userdata.user_posts;
    localStorage.postExp = +new Date;
  }
})

At the top are two variables you can modify :
perDay : The amount of posts a user can post a day. ( counted from the time they visit the forum )
errorMsg : The message displayed when they try to post, but have reached the limit.

Just to let you know, this can be bypassed if :
* Member is using an outdated browser
* Member disabled JavaScript
* Member has cleared their browser cache

You're welcome,

I may have made a small mistake in my previous post. However, If you notice anything wrong, try replacing it by this script :
Code:
$(function() {
  var perDay = 20,
  errorMsg = 'You\'ve reached the maximum number of posts per day.';
  
  if (localStorage.postExp > +new Date - 24*60*60*1000 && Math.abs(localStorage.postsThen - _userdata.user_posts) >= perDay) $('form[action="/post"] input[type="submit"]').click(function() {alert(errorMsg); return false});
  else if (localStorage.postExp === undefined && _userdata.session_logged_in === 1) {
    localStorage.postsThen = _userdata.user_posts;
    localStorage.postExp = +new Date;
  }
})
