Good morning Smile

We found an issue and wanted to see if there was a way to fix it.

Currently, we have ACP set to limit the number of posts a Guest Member can make to 5 in a 24 hour period. This was done in an attempt to eliminate spam posting. But, if you delete any of their posts, they can post again. Essentially, they are allowed to have 5 'active' posts if that makes sense.

Is there a way to limit Guest Members to a certain number of posts whether the posts themselves are active or not?

Thank you!
Are you permanently deleting posts or soft deleting?

Hey Smile

Even just soft deleting a post allows them to post an additional post beyond the limit set.
