How to prevent a single user from submitting multiple time of a form ? Can session be used to do that ? or there's other solution ?
I'm using CF4 .
Hi eddddd,
Are these logged in users?

hi greyhead , I just want to stop users spamming it by clicking the back button on the browser and click submit again and again .
it would be better to have a limit on how many times a user can submit the form in a short time.
Thanks greyhead ! you are very helpful 😀

Hi Andrea,
Try the Anti Flood action - see two posts before yours.

Hi Bob,
Now I'm using AntiFlood.
To test it I set the delay to 5 second.
The first run of the form, display the message given from AntiFlood instead of the thank page.
I've waited 6 second, and at the new submision of the form work fine with the thanks page, and all new submission with a delay < 5 seconds return corectly the AntiFlood message.
Wy AntiFlood is gone in action at the first run of the form?
Thanks
Andrea
Hi Andrea,
I can only think that perhaps you were still in the time-out period from a previous test. If you test with the default setting of 60 seconds, then change the setting and re-test before the 60 seconds is up then this will happen.

Later: I've updated the action so that it applies the current value of the time-out period when the form is submitted. Previously it stored the current time + the delay.
