Description

Limit the number of posts that your users(non-admins with edit post capability) can publish. This plugin by https://99robots.com allows you to limit the number of posts that can be published based on role or user.

It allows for the following:

  • Limit number of posts by role (non-admins with edit post capability)
  • Limit number of posts by user (i.e., John Doe can be limited to 5 posts)
  • Posts submitted after user has exceeded their limits will have a new post status of ‘Limited’
  • Limit number of posts by post type (coming soon…)

Also please check out our other plugins 🙂

You can install the Limit Posts plugin from your WordPress Dashboard or manually via FTP. For more details, visit http://99robots.com

What happens when a user has exceeded his / her limit?

Rather than force the user to delete their post, such posts will be submitted for review using a new post status labeled ‘Limited.’ An Admin can then determine if the post should be published. This ensures no author’s work is disregarded simply because they exceeded their post limit.

It seems to work, but Author can't see it hasn't.

By ABCDiamond on September 12, 2018

I have just installed this and tested it, using a test author. I have it set for just ONE post being allowed. It accepted a 2nd post, and, as that author, I could see the post. I was not aware that it had not been accepted. But, when I looked as a non logged in user, the post wasn't there. It appears to have done the job. As Admin, I found the 2nd post, in the list of posts, but it was marked as "limited" on the post status. Which was confusing, as I hadn't seen that status before. I assume it is limited to only the author seeing it. BUT... as a non logged in user, if I click on the authors name, I can see both the posts by that author, including the "limited" one. Overall not bad, but can do with some improvements. For a Free plugin, that I can cope with, it's OK. 3 or 4 stars from me.

I wish this worked
