Limiting CB Ajax Text fieldtype with CBSubs

10 years 6 months ago #234685 by jwall101
Hi.

Apologies if this should be in a different section of the forum. I have CB 1.9 already running on a Joomla 1.5 site and am currently undertaking a huge update to bring it over to 2.5 and try to make more use of the fabulous Community Builder and add CB Subs.

My question is about the CB Ajax Text fieldtype. I already use it for people to provide status updates however we seem to have some hardcore fans of it who feel the need to constantly refresh their status so that it stays in the list. Is there some clever way to make CBSubs allow it to happen only once a week for free profiles and perhaps unlimited for subscribers?

I am probably going to be using Alphauserpoints to limit the amount of messages sent through UddeIM so that avenue is already being utilised unless there is something I've not thought of (highly likely).

Anyway, thank you in advance for your time and for continuing to create such a great system.

No, you'd need to custom develop something to prevent the ajax of the field from being used too often. You'd need to implement a solution to track when they last updated it. I'm not sure why it's an issue that your users are updating it often as that seams like a good thing (active community) unless they're spamming it with spam messages in which case just ban them.

Thanks Kyle.

lol yes, perhaps I should just encourage others to use it too in an effort to keep up with the few who are persistent.

Thanks again.
