What are some potential pitfalls of allowing multiple gutschein redemptions per person on a website?
Potential pitfalls of allowing multiple gutschein redemptions per person on a website include increased financial burden on the company, potential abuse of the system by users, and difficulty in tracking and managing redemptions. To solve this issue, limit the number of redemptions per person to one to prevent abuse and ensure fair distribution of discounts.
// Check if the user has already redeemed a gutschein
$user_id = get_current_user_id();
$redeemed_count = get_user_meta($user_id, 'gutschein_redeemed_count', true);
if($redeemed_count >= 1){
echo 'Sorry, you have already redeemed a gutschein.';
} else {
// Process gutschein redemption
// Update user meta to track redemption
update_user_meta($user_id, 'gutschein_redeemed_count', $redeemed_count + 1);
}
