Is it possible to make it so each person can only post once for each topic?

I want to make a Q&A site. Each person will only be able to post an answer/response once. Is this possible? Will I need to hack the code?

Thanks

Such a thing will need a little coding but not a hack as such. It could be achieved using the built in WordPress system of filters and that code can be placed in a child theme to protect it from updates. Probably the easiest way is to just remove the 'Reply' buttons when appropriate. Of course it could only be made to work for registered users so I assume you would not be allowing unregistered access.

Thank you Yellow Swordfish. I will give it a try. I will need a lot of help though. Will you be able to help me after I buy support? Is this the kind of support that is offered?
