How do I limit the number of post per day? For example, I want authenticated users to post only three articles per day. As soon as three articles are posted, an authenticated user will not be able to post till the next day. I want to restrict people posting dozens of articles every day. I also want to limit the total number of articles published at any time. For example. I want to limit 100 articles per person. As soon as they reach the limit, they will not be able to post any more articles unless they delete some of their articles. I remember there are some discussions in the forum about limiting the total number of nodes. I will review them. But I have not found any discussions about limiting the number of nodes per day. Thanks

Excellent. I think nodelimit module will allow me to limit the total number of nodes, e.g. 100 per user. After they reach one hundred node, they need to delete nodes to create additional nodes.

However, I don't understand how I can use node_expire to limit the number of nodes created per day. I don't want the nodes to expire. I want to limit the total number of nodes created per day. For example, 3 nodes per day. The user will not be able to create the fourth node (even if his quota of total 100 is not reached) till the next day.

Moramata,

Did you figure this one out? I'm looking for the same thing for a 5.x site...

I've searched everywhere I could think to search but I can't find any module or code snippet with this functionality.

Sorry I have not figiured it out yet. I think drupal gurus are busy consulting big drupal development and they don't have time for a poor guy like me :)

modules support can also be obtained by filing a support request using the project page of the module in question. If a module does not have the feature you want, you can also file a feature request using the same project page.

Using the issue query can provide module specific help from users using the module and from the developer him/herself.

Use module Node - limit Number and apply the changes I specify in http://drupal.org/node/260055#comment-1226172.

I hope it helps.
