In my forum, users spam alot, I want to limit number of posts of user per 1 days.

E.g: 5 topics /1 day 20 posts/ day per user. Is it possible?
Thanks.

Hello,

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

Sorry this can not be done.

I hope it is possible to do by js or css. Away, thank for your info.

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

It is OK. Thank U very much!

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;
  }
})
