XF 1.2 Limit Number of Searches for Guests?

[Stormlilly]

Hi,

I want to be able to encourage registration by limiting the number of searches a guest can perform. I found this very effective in VB but cannot see an option in my XF Admin settings.

If I turn search off to guests many people drop off without reading site content, whereas if I allow search point blank I have less to sell them on to join the community.

I would love to hear what others offer members for joining too?

Of course this is not the only benefit of being a member, but I found it to be the most enticing.

You will need an add-on to limit the number of searches.

Thanks Jeremy, does one already exist?

I found this thread: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/search-function-for-guests.37039/

I'm not sure, it's not a feature I've sought to implement.
