For each choice I need something like a counter, because for each date there is only a contingent for 20 people.</p> <p>Thank you </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/limit-number-of-entries-variables#post-12275 Tue, 05 Jul 2011 15:56:05 +0000 redityo 12275@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>This possible with some customization on "includes/post-functions.php" file. To do this, go to around line 922 for these code :</p> <pre><code>$query = &quot;select count(id) total_ip from ap_form_{$form_id} where ip_address=&#39;$user_ip_address&#39;&quot;;</code></pre> <p>then you can change the code to be like this :</p> <pre><code>if ($form_id == 1 ){ $query = &quot;select count(id) total_ip from ap_form_{$form_id} where ip_address=&#39;$user_ip_address&#39; and date_format(date_created,&#39;%d%m%Y&#39;) = date_format(current_date(),&#39;%d%m%Y&#39;) &quot;; } else if ($form_id == 2) { $query = &quot;select count(id) total_ip from ap_form_{$form_id} where element_1 = &#39;{$table_data[&#39;element_1&#39;]}&#39; &quot;; } else { $query = &quot;select count(id) total_ip from ap_form_{$form_id} where ip_address=&#39;$user_ip_address&#39;&quot;; }</code></pre> <p>on those code, you can see an conditional code. I assume form 1, will have limit entries by 1 ip per day. And form 2 will have limit entries based on how many submitted email address in the form ( I assume the email field id is "element_1").</p> <p>For limiting entries based on email count. You need go to line 934 for this code :</p> <pre><code>$process_result[&#39;custom_error&#39;] = &#39;Sorry, but this form is limited to one submission per user.&#39;;</code></pre> <p>and change it to </p> <pre><code>if ($form_id == 2) { if ($row[&#39;total_ip&#39;] == 5) { $process_result[&#39;custom_error&#39;] = &#39;Sorry, but the email address already submitted 5 times.&#39;; } } else { $process_result[&#39;custom_error&#39;] = &#39;Sorry, but this form is limited to one submission per user.&#39;; }</code></pre> <p>You need to change the id and number on those codes </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/limit-number-of-entries-variables#post-12270 Tue, 05 Jul 2011 00:58:28 +0000 fmolstad 12270@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hello.<br /> Would it be possible to limit the number of entries to the email address provided rather than the IP?<br /> Would it be possible to limit the number of entries to one per IP address per day (Then reset)?</p> <p>Forrest </p>
