Limiting the number of courses registered per student

Limiting the number of courses registered per student

Hi all.

I want to limit the number of courses that a student can register for at one time. For example:

Out of a total of 30 courses available on our site, any given student can only register for a maximum of 5 courses at the same time.

Can anyone help as to how we can do this? Is there any plugin available that allows us to apply this limitation?

With Regards,

Grant D Muhl

Hi Grant,

You would need some kind of Enrollment plugin. Take a look at this plugin which is based on a system that uses credits:

Course credit enrolment

I haven't used it myself but it sounds like you would allocate lets say 5 credits to students and they could spend these credit on any 5 of the 30 courses which cost 1 credit each.

You could even take it one step further and have some courses worth more than one credit.

Hope you find this useful.

Merry Christmas!

Michael
