Title: Maximum entries Last modified: July 15, 2018 --- # Maximum entries * [ronc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronc/) * (@ronc) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/maximum-entries/) * In this case how can I limit the amount of entries? I have 2 categories Digital and prints. I have a field ‘Sequence’ choices are image 1 image 2 and makeup. the person can submit 2 entries per categories but they are allowed 2 makeups also. So technically they can submit 4 entries per category. Putting a limit of 2 will not work. Putting a limit of 4 then they can submit 2 ‘images 1’ and 2 ‘images 2’. or nay other combination. (I know the user should know better) Is there a way to control it with restrictions?

No control there either. The choice of Image 1 or image 2 was so that they recognize how many they are entering. The value/label is meaningless. What is important is the ‘makeup designation’ of that category entry. * You are correct I could create digital makeup and print makeup and limit them to 2. * My example was to simplified to concept. But in real uploading, we may have 6 or 7 categories, so it would double the number. * I was hoping for some control in restrictions. If that is not possible, them I will have to go that route an deal with it within my program. - This reply was modified 7 years, 11 months ago by [ronc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronc/). - This reply was modified 7 years, 11 months ago by [ronc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronc/). * Plugin Author [Ilia Tyker](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joanne123/) * (@joanne123) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/maximum-entries/#post-10497284) * If you are allowing 2 makeups in each category, then I think whatever you did you would need at least one restriction for each category, which would be even more work. * The only other solution I can think of is two separate webforms, one for makeup and one for regular, using the same layout. Or just keep the previous month’s webform open. * Thread Starter [ronc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronc/) * (@ronc) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/maximum-entries/#post-10497998) * Option 2 will not be good as I need the closing spread sheet. * I think option one even if it is more work, may be more suitable. Thanks for the attention, responses and Ideas. Very much appreciated.
