Required minimum number of items

    Hi,

    I’ve just installed your great plugin and I am currently conducting a series of tests.

    In our photo contests, we require that precisely N pics MUST be provided. The context is the following: a group of N people participate in a contest. The rule is to submit ONE pic per participant, therefore a total of N pics (by N different people). They must designate ONE representative (a EZ Wizard user) who have to submit their N pics. The layout was designed for the title, name-of-authour, and pic-file is captured.

    Now: I wonder if there is a way to control that this minimum of N pics is enforced with some plugin parameter. Also, if we can forbid the same author-name to be entered on two different item.

    Any help / hint would be grreatly appreciated!

    Richard

    As you say, this is a great plugin.
    As an entrant can make a partial entry and then top it up later, it would hardly be possible (except by extra-sensory perception) to know whether your entrant has made a partial entry and intends to return later, or your entrant has failed your requirements.
    Nor is there any connection between the individual entries to know whether someone has submitted over a quota. They could easily alter their name by one character to defeat such a check.
    In the end, the plugin does a great generic job but nobody could build in all the possible local uses to which it can be put. You have to enforce your local rules afterwards. It wouldn’t take more than a couple of disqualifications to get your message over.

    It makes sense. Thank you! We’ll find a way.
