I thought of that, but upon rereading the OP's criteria, s/he desires a timeframe as well. A little Google should be able to accomplish what's needed.
Bookmarked this link, Ive worked with a number of plugins such as this and its great to see WP plugin devs still producing nice plugins like this but my link to the coupon needs to be bare naked and available for "drive by" clickers. the company specifically said no registration unfortunately.
Hunting now to see if I can provide a solution. I'm pretty well-versed with WP.
Thanks Im going through your links as I write this. If your a WP enthusiast, then we should connect. <3WordPress<3
piece of piss. you can pw protect any page. http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Password_Protection
Im still trying to wrap my head around what a "Piece of Piss" is. The word piece is generally used for measuring dry particulate so im assuming this "piss" is frozen. Kinda sounds like british english. Yeah I wrote in that lengthy, bulks post that I cant have password protected content. I need it set up for drive by downloaders, stupid simple type of stuff. the people that are downloading these coupons are like the bulk of the general internet consumer we see today. they need to point, click and download in less then 2 seconds or they are bouncing faster then a piece of pisses bouncing off the pavement. http://wplift.com/plugins-to-restrict-content

I'm sure this could be tweaked: http://wordpressdealplugin.com/
Many thanks for your searching. my searches turned up many of the similiar results. boat loads of paid plugins. searching for an open source/free plugin. I even began looking at the source code of bitcoin faucets which all by default have IP based time limited functions. I think that I will need to start learning how to implement custom cookies. As much time as I spend on this forum I thought I would ask this elementary question that I cannot seem to find an answer too. I think the main reason I cannot find the answer to the question is because im not inputting the proper keywords into google. So even if you can throw some terminology at me to use as keywords this would be great. Ive been procrastinating starting a thread with this question for some time so since then I think that I found an answer that could be the most ideal solution but Im sure there are other solutions.
Let me tell you what im trying to do. I manage a small businesses wordpress website. They want to implement coupons. Ok this is no problem. Ill style up a basic coupon voucher, save it as a PDF and provide a download link. But they want to limit the coupon to one coupon per customer for a specific time period. How do I go about limiting 1 coupon per customer and for a set time period? It would be awesome to be able to tally the number of claimed coupons but I assume the easiest way would be through google analytics.
I was using woobox, which at the bare minimum provided what we needed but since then woobox starting charging a subscription fee. I am assuming that the best implementation of limiting access will need to be done via the users IP address. So then cookies come to mind.
I could implement some sort of user registration that would lead them to the coupon page but the company felt that would deter the overall number of claimed coupons. another idea was to require the customer to enter in an email to get to the download page so the question could be how to limit content by email address.
So my question is, what are some other ways to implement limiting access to a webpage and/or download link besides cookies...or is this the best way? If i set something up limiting by email address i assume that a database would be required so cookie may be the less amount of set up work.
Do any of you know of any wordpress plugins or scripts that I can modify so that i can accomplish this.
I am pretty much content tracking visits and such through google anlaytics but if you knew of a better way this is a plus. the company wants to be able to view the claimed number of coupons at any given time. I could do this through google analytics but I know they are going to get all stressed having to think a little bit navigating a section of Google analytics.
A long winded general question indeed but I appreciate any response and your time reading through this.

Being a new member of this forum....signed up today....it's refreshing to read a post that isn't a compete waste of my time! Funniest thing, it isn't even Bitcoin related but I can clearly see there are people within the community who are willing to help when it is requested!
