Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.Hi,
I'm a Newb... I'm using Drupal 7.38 with Node Limit 7.x-1.Alpha5 and Organic Groups 7.x-2.7.
From reading previous issues I understand that Node Limit is not really intended to integrate with OG so I'm just filing this in case it helps anyone else...
I have set up Node Limit to prevent my users from starting more than one group each on my site. In other words, I have set NL to limit a certain type of user to only one instance of a node which I have designated to be an OG group.
When setting the NL to 1, I found that my users weren't able to publish *any* groups.
It was only when I set the NL to 3 that users were able to publish *one* group!
With the limit set to 4 they could publish two groups. With the limit set to 5 they can publish 3 groups.
I *assume* things go on in the same vein.
Setting the limit to -1 allows users to publish a group but I haven't established how many. I assume an unlimited number as designed.
Hope this helps someone.

duaelfrCan you show me how is your NL configured?

SMartin commentedHi,
Please see attachment.
I refer to a Group as a 'Project' on this site :-)

duaelfrOk that's a common mistake.
You must use the "user of role" submodule instead of "role". That's poorly named but when you use the "role" submodule that limit is shared by all the users having that role. When you use the "user of role" submodule, each user in this role have its own limit.

SMartin commentedHi,
Ok, so now I have Role unchecked
Content type: myproject
Users of Role: Project
With a limit of 1.
This seems to work :-)
I took the 'User of role' to be a way of limiting the number of users of a particular role on a given site. I could set a limit of ten project owners in other words.
Anyway... thanks! :-)
