I too would like an option to limit the number of posts a user can create per post type. Is this feature still coming?
Level: Yogi(BuddyDev Team)Posts: 3115Hello,
Please try the following code:
add_filter( 'bblpro_user_can_create_post', function ( $can, $user_id, $post_type ) { // Not his profile return. if ( ! bp_is_my_profile() ) { return $can; } if ( 'post' === $post_type ) { $posts_limit = 5; $args = array( 'numberposts' => - 1, 'post_type' => $post_type, 'fields' => 'ids', 'author' => $user_id, ); $posts_count = get_posts( $args ); if ( ! empty( $posts_count ) && count( $posts_count ) >= $posts_limit ) { $can = false; } } return $can; }, 15, 3 );It will limit the user based on post type. Please give it a try

Hello Ravi
I would prefer to limit post creation to 10 per day for all users
Maybe a buddyblog integration with this plugin can help https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-posts-limit/

this is a rough work
add_filter( 'bblpro_user_can_create_post', function ( $can, $user_id, $post_type ) { // Check if it's a post creation attempt and the user is logged in. if ( 'post' !== $post_type || ! is_user_logged_in() ) { return $can; } // Get the posts limit. $posts_limit = 1; // Get the last post creation timestamp for the user. $last_post_time = get_user_meta( $user_id, 'last_post_time', true ); // If the last post time is not set or it's been more than 24 hours, reset the counter. if ( empty( $last_post_time ) || strtotime( $last_post_time ) < strtotime( '-1 day' ) ) { // Reset post count. update_user_meta( $user_id, 'post_count', 0 ); update_user_meta( $user_id, 'last_post_time', current_time( 'mysql' ) ); } // Get the current post count for the user. $post_count = get_user_meta( $user_id, 'post_count', true ); if ( $post_count >= $posts_limit ) { $can = false; // User has exceeded the daily limit. } else { // Increment the post count and update the last post time. $post_count++; update_user_meta( $user_id, 'post_count', $post_count ); update_user_meta( $user_id, 'last_post_time', current_time( 'mysql' ) ); } return $can; }, 15, 3 );The problem is how to not restrict old users who have already published old posts over the post limit. I would have preferred the limit to start afresh for old users

Hello Ravi,
I finally think this code work can you review it
add_filter( 'bblpro_user_can_create_post', function ( $can, $user_id, $post_type ) { // Not user's profile, return without modification if ( ! bp_is_my_profile() ) { return $can; } if ( 'post' === $post_type ) { $posts_limit = 5; // Adjust the daily limit as needed $today = date( 'Y-m-d' ); // Get today's date $args = array( 'numberposts' => -1, 'post_type' => $post_type, 'fields' => 'ids', 'author' => $user_id, 'date_query' => array( array( 'after' => $today . ' 00:00:00', 'before' => $today . ' 23:59:59', 'inclusive' => true, ), ), ); $posts_count = get_posts( $args ); if ( ! empty( $posts_count ) && count( $posts_count ) >= $posts_limit ) { $can = false; // User has reached the daily limit } } return $can; }, 15, 3 ); - Level: Yogi(BuddyDev Team)Posts: 3115
Hello Tosin,
You can use this code although it is slow but it doesn’t have much effect on site performance.
