Use Session
For example, after a post, put the current time + 30 minutes in your session line this
$_SESSION['postTimeFlag'] = time() + 1800;
Then whenever the user is about to post then the session
if(time()>$_SESSION['postTimeFlag']) {
//continue posting
}
Limit posting to every 30 minutes
Question by jay
Thanks for looking.
I’m trying to write a script to set a cookie after the user posts a comment, limiting them from posting again for 30 minutes. I’m so confused on where to start. Please, could you guys help me out on how I do this?
I’m trying to use this jquery plugin – countdown timer.
