This hack has been sought after by many people but I haven't seen it created so here is one of the most requested features for phpbb forums. It will limit the amount of posts you want per day for all posters. You can go further and take the limit off for admins and moderators. There is also a version of the hack for subscribers of phpnuke to not have a limit[ ws subscribers only]. Posters will see the error message if they try to post more than the alloted amount.

Files to edit :
modules/forums/posting.php

Steps :
Open posting.php and search for the following codes

<?
      else if ( $submit || $confirm )

This hack will limit posts to 2 per day. Change the 2 to any number of posts you want to limit users to each day. You can also change the 86400 to 86400 x 2[172800] for 2 days. Also change the error message to anything you want users to see when they are over the limit. Save and upload.
