    what do you
   mean by “Visitors can only vote once on each topic or reply”? I set up a hidden,
   members only forum and each member still can **vote endless**. Is this wanted?
   Or am i the only one with this issue?

 * So that means the ability to set cookies is not working in your PHP version 7.2.11.
   I don’t think there’s anything my plugin can do about that. Regardless of any
   future features which use usermeta for logged-in users, there will always be 
   visitors that we want to allow to vote once, so we need to store a cookie.

 * Closing this for now. Let me know if you need anything else.
