Limit page views for guests

Is there a plugin or a way to code this? This was a feature that helped me increase the number of registered users back then when I was using SMF.

How can this be achieved with bbPress?

there is no plugin, but it’s easy to create (this is just an example not a full working snippet)

If your visitors are from the same network you might have problems with this.
```
session_start();

$ipkey = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

$_SESSION[$ipkey]++;

if ($_SESSION[$ipkey] >= 10) {

header("Location: /register.php");

exit;

}
```
check also the function on my own forum.

You could have the browser drop a cookie and then track pageviews through that… then when the user hits a pre-set number of pageviews, a registration page could appear.

If you’re looking for a point and click plugin that does this, it doesn’t exist AFAIK. You’d to commission someone to program it…
