    Hi MannaJS,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. You can prevent the same person from filling out your form multiple times from the same network using the Unique Submission feature. Let me show you how:

    1. In Form Builder, in the orange navigation bar at the top of the page, click on Settings
    2. Next, click on Show More Options.
    3. Now, scroll down to the Unique Submission section and select either Check Cookies Only or Check Cookies and IP Address.

    Hi MannaJS,

    Are you trying to change the error message? If so, yes, we can do that. Let me show you how:

    1. In Form Builder, click on the Settings tab in the navigation bar at the top and click on the Show More Options button.
    2. Now, in the Form Warnings section, click on the Edit button.
    3. Search and select the Sorry! Only one entry is allowed warning, and update it.
    4. Click on the Save Changes button once done, and that's it.
