Hello,
I'm somewhat new to PHP but I know a little. I want to build a forum style website but I want to implement a time limit for each post. For instance, there is a list of each person registered on the forum in order of which they are to post. Lets say I am the first to post. The next person has 2 days to post their addition before it goes to the next person in the list. I'd also like it to email a reminder to the person as their time comes up. Is this possible?

Re: Forum with time limits
So no one has even a simple yes or no answer? I'm not looking for anyone to write code for me. I'm just not sure where to start.
Re: Forum with time limits
hey JD, yes it's possible. One of my favorite mantra's has always been "Anything is possible, it's just a matter of my time and your money". If you're new to PHP, a forum is a large task to take on. I know it can be frustrating if you have a super huge goal like that just starting out. As to where to start, this forum you're reading is a great place. There is a wealth of knowledge awaiting you behind every post title. I would recommend trying to build little things until you can get a good grasp of the language. The reason no one has responded to your post (till now) is because your question is like asking a bunch of bridge engineers where to start when building a steel trussel bridge for a train. It's not impossible but you might be best starting out learning about things first and maybe attempting a bridge made of wood across a small stream instead. I hope this doesn't discourage you. Best of luck in your quest to true PHP enlightenment.
