GamiPress – Points Limits is a premium add-on designed to prevent “point inflation” by capping the amount of digital currency a user can earn. It provides granular control over point accumulation, allowing you to set restrictions based on specific timeframes and user roles.

Technical Specifications & Features
| Feature | Description |
| Compatibility | Requires the core GamiPress plugin (free). Works with all standard WordPress themes. |
| Limitation Scope | Can be applied globally to a Points Type or specifically to User Roles. |
| Recurrence Periods | Lifetime, Year, Month, Week, or Day. |
| Enforcement | Blocks points from all sources: automatic awards, achievements, and manual awards by admins. |
| Hierarchy Logic | If a user has multiple roles, GamiPress applies the least restrictive limit. |
| Shortcode & Block | [gamipress_points_limit] (and equivalent Gutenberg block) displays the user’s progress toward their limit. |
Configuration Details
Settings for this add-on are found directly within the Points Type edit screen. A dedicated “Points Limits” meta box allows you to define:
-
Points Amount: The maximum numeric value a user can reach in the specified period.
-
Limit Recurrence: How often the “cap” resets. For example, setting a limit of 100 points per Day means the user can earn 100 points every 24-hour cycle.
-
Role-Based Overrides: You can set a “Subscriber” limit to 50 points/day while allowing “Editors” to earn 500 points/day.
Display & User Feedback
To keep users informed, the plugin includes a Points Limit Block and a Widget. These can be customized with various tags:
-
{points}: Current points earned toward the limit. -
{points_limit}: The maximum points allowed. -
{limit_recurrence}: The time period (e.g., “per day”). -
{points_type}: The name of the points (e.g., “Credits”).
