is there a nice function I can use to limit logged in users to one comment per post? I'm setting up a review system and only one review permitted per user. Thanks.

No, there is no such nice function. You have to develop it by yourself.– Eugene ManuilovCommented Feb 7, 2013 at 17:46

<?php
global $current_user;
$args = array(
'user_id' => $current_user->ID,
'post_id' = 100, // post ID. Can be '$post->ID' depending where you are calling this from
'count' => true
);
if(get_comments($args) >= 1){
echo 'disabled';
} else {
comment_form();
}
Function_Reference/get_comments
Based on AndrettiMilas code.

How would I code the '$post->ID' bit? There are many posts so don't think I can use 'post_id' = 100 - I am calling this from comments.php thanks. Commented Feb 8, 2013 at 10:33

btw sorry AndrettiMilas for not crediting but I did already find this code and was the last bit I needed. Commented Feb 8, 2013 at 10:49
See if this still works:
<?php
global $current_user;
$args = array('user_id' => $current_user->ID);
$usercomment = get_comments($args);
if(count($usercomment) >= 1){
echo 'disabled';
} else {
comment_form();
}
?>

You can use
'count' => trueargument to eliminatecount()call. If set totrue,get_comments()will return comments count only. Commented Feb 7, 2013 at 21:22 -
Thanks AndrettiMilas but this function works only looking at all posts - I need to modify it to only look at the current post? Thanks. Commented Feb 8, 2013 at 9:18
