How to add Search Limiting when using xlResults.phpWhen using the xlResults.php deployment, you must add the ip limiting code to xlResults.php.
Below is example set limit to 30 searches per hour.
//BEGIN EXAMPLE
$searchLimitCount = 30;
$searchLimitTime = 60 * 60; // an hour
$key = "xlocator";
$c = 0;
foreach ($_COOKIE as $k => $v)
{
if (substr($k, 0, strlen($key)) == $key)
{
$c++;
}
}
if ($c > $searchLimitCount)
{
header("Location: search_limit.php");
exit;
}
$t = time();
setcookie($key.$t, 0, $t + $searchLimitTime);
//END EXAMPLE
To now set some IPs that are not affected by the limiting:
//BEGIN EXAMPLE
$unlimitedIP = array("1.1.1.1", "2.2.2.2");
If (in_array($_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"], $unlimitedIP))
{
//do not limit
}
//END EXAMPLE
