    Hi there, is there a way to set it so there is a cut off time to choosing a date. For example, I don't want them to be able to pick a date for tomorrow IF it is after 2pm today. Basically, I don't want them to be able to pick tomorrow at 10pm at night because I have already left for the day and I will not be able to properly prepare for the next day.

    Hi city of fircrest,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I've carefully checked this out and unfortunately, our date picker field doesn't have the ability to limit dates based on time.

    While that feature isn’t available in Jotform right now, I’ve sent your request to our Developers for review. When or if it gets developed will depend on their current workload, how possible it is, and how much demand there is from other users. If/when we have any updates, we’ll follow up here and keep you posted.

    Hello there is a work around.

    Add a Time widget, put the default time on current. Hide it.

    Add two Date picker widget, in one you set the start date to today+1 and you leave the end date. Other date picker can be normal. Hide both of them.

    Now you add the conditions :

    1) Show first date picker if the time in the Time widget is after 2pm.

    2) Show second date picker if the time in the Time widget is before 2pm.

    Was doinf that for one of my form today, it works perfectly :)
