TOPIC: Stop submitting after 10 submits

Stop submitting after 10 submits 9 years 11 months ago #31520

Hi

Wondering if it would be possible to stop a form from being submitted after 10 guests has submitted it?

I would like to use the form as a simple order form for a stand at a venue.
But there are only 10 stands, so when 10 persons has ordered their stand, the form should no longer be able to submit.

Possible?

Hope I made my wish clear :-)

Regards
Thomas

Please try an approach as per the example below.
// Get a database connection.
$db = JFactory::getDbo();
 
// Setup the query.
$db->setQuery("SELECT COUNT(`SubmissionId`) FROM #__rsform_submissions WHERE `FormId`='".(int) $formId."'");
$submissions = $db->loadResult();
 
// Verify if the submission count is higher than >
if ($submissions > 10) {
	$formLayout = '<p>Sorry, no more submissions allowed.</p>';
 }

That particular script needs to be inserted in Scripts called on form display. You can find more information here:

cityhorsens.dk/index.php?option=com_rsform&formId=1

I inserted this:

// Get a database connection.
$db = JFactory::getDbo();

// Setup the query.
$db->setQuery("SELECT COUNT('SubmissionId') FROM #h1uo_rsform_submissions WHERE 'FormId'='".(int) $formId."'");
$submissions = $db->loadResult();

// Verify if the submission count is higher than >
if ($submissions > 4) {
$formLayout = '<p>Sorry, no more submissions allowed.</p>';
}

Your error is here:
 
$db->setQuery("SELECT COUNT('SubmissionId') FROM #h1uo_rsform_submissions WHERE 'FormId'='".(int) $formId."'");
 
// change it to this:
 
$db->setQuery("SELECT COUNT(`SubmissionId`) FROM #__rsform_submissions WHERE `FormId`='".(int) $formId."'");

And there are 6 submissions

PS, please copy paste my query from here:

Should work
// Verify if the submission count is higher than >
if ($submissions > 4) {
	$formLayout = '<p>Sorry, no more submissions allowed.</p>';
} else {
	$howMany = 4 - $submissions;
	$formLayout = '<p>'.$howMany.' stands left</p>'.$formLayout;
}

This is just working great!

I would like a small change...
So now it should not stop after x times submit, but after the total sum of a field has reached, let say 100.
Possible?

I know to little of coding, sorry...

Also thinking that some check on submit checks whether there are enough stands left before submitting...
