    Hi,

    I want to add a start time and end time on the form. I need the form to be available to book starting at 12 PM and ending at 5 PM everyday.


    Is this possible?

    Thanks

    Hi bishowkazzi,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Yes, it is possible to achieve this in Jotform. You can hide and show fields using Hide/Show Field conditions, Time element and paragraph field with your custom message when the form is not available. Let me show you how to do it:

    1. In Form Builder, click on Add Form Elements.

    2. Choose the Time element and add it to your form field. Set it to hide.

    3. Go to Options.

    4. Then set up 24 hours and set to current time.

    5. Next, add the hidden Paragraph element. Choose the Paragraph Element and set your custom message to show.

    7. Click on Conditions on the left side panel, then click Add Condition.

    8. Then click on Show/Hide Field conditional logic.
