Is there a way to check a post for number of img tags and disallow if there are too many? I would like to make it so there is only one picture allowed per post

| Not built-in to my knowledge, but you could add a couple of lines of code to do so yourself by counting the number of instances of the opening '[img....' tag and deciding on what you want to do if there's more than one (for instance, will you send an error message, or just show the first image, etc) |

| you could just tell your users they can only post one img and then start locking their accounts if they post more. not sure why you would want to introduce a limit anyway. |

I don't want to have to set new posters need approval
but I had someone register then make posts with 20 big images in them just to be destructive
it can freeze browsers until a mod comes on to delete them and ban the user
if I could make it so only 1 image per post it would be nicer for dialup users and also prevent the problems we had with that poster |
