You can edit/repeat the bit in red as needed. Just keep it in the form of:

post_limit['general'] = [5, 1, true];

Where green is the board ID. The blue is the limit on the number of posts allowed. The purple is the number of days this limit lasts. And the orange sets if it counts replies or not (true will count replies, false will just count new threads).
