Limit Reset For Reward For Clicking On Links

Hello Morchi,

Thanks for contacting us. Hope you are doing well.

The user will get points only once for clicking on a unique link. If you want to use multiple shortcodes you will have to provide either a unique url or unique ID for every shortcode.
For more information please go through the documentation.

Thanks & Regards,

Hey, thank you for your reply. Is there a way to reset every 24 hours? I have a single page where users get a reward for visiting it, but currently, it’s only possible once. I want to make it so that users can visit that page every day to collect their coins and not just once

You can try using the shortcode and function below.

Custom WordPress shortcode:

Try using the below code snippet and let us know if it works for you:

add_shortcode( ‘mycred_max_link’, ‘mycred_render_max_link’ );

function mycred_render_max_link( $atts, $content ) {
// Make sure myCRED is installed
// Not applicable for visitors
if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
    return '';
}

$atts = shortcode_atts( array(
    // ... (your existing attributes)
    'max_click_interval' => 24 * 60 * 60, // 24 hours in seconds
), $atts );

$mycred = mycred( $atts['ctype'] );

global $wpdb;
$user_id = get_current_user_id();

// Check max click requirement and time interval
if ( $atts['max_clicks'] > 0 ) {
    $last_click_time = get_user_meta( $user_id, 'last_click_time', true );

    if ( $last_click_time && ( time() - $last_click_time ) < $atts['max_click_interval'] ) {
        // Clicks are limited to once every 24 hours, and the time hasn't elapsed
        return '';
    }

    $wpdb->insert(
        $mycred->log_table,
        array(
            'user_id' => $user_id,
            'ref'     => 'link_click',
            'data'    => $atts['href'],
            'time'    => current_time( 'mysql' ),
        )
    );

    // Update the last click time in user meta
    update_user_meta( $user_id, 'last_click_time', time() );
}

// Let myCRED run the mycred_link shortcode.
return mycred_render_shortcode_link( $atts, $content );
}

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks

Should i add the function in functions.php ?

can you give me an example on how i would go about it, if the link i want to share is “example.com/page1” and reward 100 coins

Sorry for asking too many questions, and thanks.

Yes add this code snippet in your active theme’s functions.php file.

Refer to the myCred Link clicks documentation. It will run in the same way. Functionality will remain the same. We have just created a custom shortcode for you.

add_shortcode( ‘mycred_max_link’, ‘mycred_render_max_link’ );

function mycred_render_max_link( $atts, $content ) {
    // Make sure myCRED is installed
    if ( ! function_exists( 'mycred' ) ) {
        return 'myCRED is not installed';
    }

// Not applicable for visitors
if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
    return '';
}
$atts = shortcode_atts( array(
        'id'                 => '',
        'rel'                => '',
        'class'              => '',
        'href'               => '',
        'title'              => '',
        'target'             => '',
        'style'              => '',
        'amount'             => 0,
        'ctype'              => 'mycred_default',
        'max_clicks'         => 0,
        'hreflang'           => '',   // for advanced users
        'media'              => '',   // for advanced users
        'type'               => ''    // for advanced users
        'max_click_interval' => 24 * 60 * 60, // 24 hours in seconds
), $atts );

$mycred = mycred( $atts['ctype'] );

global $wpdb;
$user_id = get_current_user_id();

// Check max click requirement and time interval
if ( $atts['max_clicks'] > 0 ) {
    $last_click_time = get_user_meta( $user_id, 'last_click_time', true );

if ( $last_click_time && ( time() - $last_click_time ) < $atts['max_click_interval'] ) {
    // Clicks are limited to once every 24 hours, and the time hasn't elapsed
    return '';
}

$wpdb->insert(
    $mycred->log_table,
    array(
        'user_id' => $user_id,
        'ref'     => 'link_click',
        'data'    => $atts['href'],
        'time'    => current_time( 'mysql' ),
    )
);

// Update the last click time in user meta
update_user_meta( $user_id, 'last_click_time', time() );
}

// Let myCRED run the mycred_link shortcode.
return mycred_render_shortcode_link( $atts, $content );
}

Let me know if you have any questions/confusion. We will help you out.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Our team is checking on this. We will update you soon.

Use the shortcode as follows:

[mycred_max_link ctype=”mycred_default” amount=1 href=”https://www.mycred.me” target=”_blank”]View portfolio[/mycred_max_link]

Here is the modified version of the code:

add_shortcode( 'mycred_max_link', 'mycred_render_max_link' );

function mycred_render_max_link( $atts, $content ) {
    // Make sure myCRED is installed
    if ( ! function_exists( 'mycred' ) ) {
        return 'myCRED is not installed';
    }

// Not applicable for visitors
if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
    return '';
}
$atts = shortcode_atts( array(
        'id'                 => '',
        'rel'                => '',
        'class'              => '',
        'href'               => '',
        'title'              => '',
        'target'             => '',
        'style'              => '',
        'amount'             => 0,
        'ctype'              => 'mycred_default',
        'max_clicks'         => 0,
        'hreflang'           => '',   // for advanced users
        'media'              => '',   // for advanced users
        'type'               => '',    // for advanced users
        'max_click_interval' => 24 * 60 * 60 // 24 hours in seconds
), $atts );

$mycred = mycred( $atts['ctype'] );

global $wpdb;
$user_id = get_current_user_id();

if (!is_user_logged_in()) {
        return '';
}

$transient_key = 'mycred_id_' . $user_id;

// Check if 'id' is not set or if 24 hours have passed
if (empty($atts['id']) || get_transient($transient_key) === false) {
    // Assign a new unique identifier to 'id'
    $atts['id'] = uniqid();

    // Save the new 'id' and timestamp to a transient
    set_transient($transient_key, time(), 24 * 60 * 60);
} 
// Check max click requirement and time interval
if ( $atts['max_clicks'] > 0 ) {
    $last_click_time = get_user_meta( $user_id, 'last_click_time', true );

if ( $last_click_time && ( time() - $last_click_time ) < $atts['max_click_interval'] ) {
    // Clicks are limited to once every 24 hours, and the time hasn't elapsed
    return '';
}

$wpdb->insert(
    $mycred->log_table,
    array(
        'user_id' => $user_id,
        'ref'     => 'link_click',
        'data'    => $atts['href'],
        'time'    => current_time( 'mysql' ),
    )
);

// Update the last click time in user meta
update_user_meta( $user_id, 'last_click_time', time() );
}

// Let myCRED run the mycred_link shortcode.
return mycred_render_shortcode_link( $atts, $content );
}
