Avoid creating many accounts cleaning cookies

  • Hello
    I see the plugin only uses cookies.
    But, how to prevent the same user from creating many accounts from the same IP cleaning cookies or using another browser?

    You can set the restriction settings meter to 0 if you want to completely lock down content.

    Hello Jeremy
    If I set the restriction settings meter to 0, new users will not be able to see posts, right?

    The problem I am referring to is that if a user reaches the limit of free posts, and then cleans cookies or changes to another browser, he will be able to create a second account and continue watching free posts.

    Is there any way to detect that the second account has the same ip and not let him see free posts with the second account ?

    Best regards

    There isn’t anything like that built into the plugin at this time. It would be possible to build, however.

    Maybe any idea for a workaround please?

    Sorry, I don’t know of any other workarounds besides what I’ve already mentioned in this thread.
