    Hello, I have problems with this plugin.
    the plugin does not limit private messages. although you put a limit can send the number of messages you want.

    Also, I would limit that they can only send private messages to site administrators. it’s possible?
    Thank you

    Hi amv,
    Is there a chance that you were logged in as super admin while testing the plugin.

    The plugin does not apply any limit when the message sender is super admin.

    For limit to admin, this plugin is not suitable for that purpose. This plugin is mostly aimed at restricting message flooding.

    We do have the message privacy plugin that partially does the job. The problem is that plugin does not have an option to disable the settings for users yet.

    If you want, I can post some code that will allow admin only message. Please do note that it won’t work with the Rate limiter plugin.

    Please let me know and I will do the needful.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hello,
    really what we need is that they can only send private messages to administrators.
    Could you manage the code? How much is the price?

    thanks

    Hi,
    you don’t have to pay anything. I will either post the code here or add it to Rate Limiteer/other plugin. Please allow me 24-36 hours to put the changes.

    Thank you

    you are welcome.
    Please make sure to disable message rate limiter plugin before testing it.

    Thank you
