The maximum number of submissions allowed for this form has been reached

Issue

• When uploading a new in a form submission the following message can appear for guest users: "The maximum number of submissions allowed for this form has been reached."

Environment

• Liferay DXP 7.4

Resolution

• Two things have to be considered:
  
  • The maximum number can be incremented through System Settings > Forms > Guest Upload Maximum Submissions
  • The number is incremented taking into account the remote address, so if multiple guest users use the same Proxy, from the application server perspective they will be considered the same IP and the number of upload submissions will be incremented.
