1 common.inc | flood_register_event($name, $window = 3600, $identifier = NULL) |
Registers an event for the current visitor to the flood control mechanism.
Parameters
$name: The name of an event.
$window: Optional number of seconds before this event expires. Defaults to 3600 (1 hour). Typically uses the same value as the flood_is_allowed() $window parameter. Expired events are purged on cron run to prevent the flood table from growing indefinitely.
