Okay, so I solved it!
Actually, I have two solutions for this.
1st solution (easier)
—————-
I hid the “Publish” (not the save) button with jquery, and added an error notice if the post count was above ‘x’.
2nd solution
—————-
I modified the ‘Limit Posts’ plugin, so now I can restrict “ALL” instead of just a specific user/user role.
