I am trying to make a user to wait for 30 minutes before writing the next blog post. Is there a feature in Drupal that makes user to wait for a predefined time between 2 blog posts? This could effectively reduce blog post spamming and flooding. I know FeedBack module has this function. How about node.module?
I need to know if there is a ready feature, or how to hack it.
Nope, this isn't another post about trying Drupal for the first time, I already have two sites with it with one under development. This post is about taking the plunge into actually learning PHP and MySQL for real instead of my random copy / paste method! (tm) ;-)
I have to say I'm really quite impressed with the course I'm on. It's taken me through setting up a local Apache server, MySQL and installing PHP already and after only a day I've covered:
A small group of us are in the process of putting together a website to centralize availability of software for a particular product. The software will come from a variety of sources and the authors of that software are likely to have very different ideas of the level of involvement they would like to have. For those that want it, we would like to have a very rich environment with svn code checkouts, forums, bug reporting, feature requests, documenation, etc. ... i.e., everything they could possibly want for supporting a user community using their code. We would also like to allow each owner to customize the appearance of their portion of the site to their personal taste, retaining only a few standard components to link back to the main site. Other authors will want something very simple to allow them to make code available, but they may be uninterested in further feedback, so a simple static download will be sufficient. And, others will be interested in creating various kinds of links back to their own web sites since one of the reasons they have published this software is to develop consulting opportunities. In some cases we will want to have nodes which have no current code content because they are a focal point for people to talk about something they want, but which no one has written yet. And, when the node relates to a group or category, it may or may not have features like a forum.
