That suggests to me that the restriction is limiting 2 in each of these Forums - not across the whole of the 20+.

Yes, if you have several forums restricted, users will be able to post up to the limit in each of the restricted forums. Suppose you have the restriction set to a maximum of 5 posts, then they can post up to 5 times in each restricted forum, not a total of 5 posts over all of the restricted forums.

Would you like a setting that will allow the restriction to be totaled over all restricted forums?

I stripped out the settings and, instead, checked by Forum instead of Child-Forum - but the result is the same.

I guess that's how the mod was designed?

Yes, child forums are included in the restriction by design. I should have made a note of that in the setting description, but didn't.

Would you prefer a setting to let you decide whether child forums are included?
