    Hi there,

    I am creating a form for a client who is running a Summer camp organization over 24 dates. He is wanting people to have the option of signing up for multiple individual dates (i.e. the 17th, 20th and 22nd) as well as those who will attend the full 24 days of the camp. I have used the calendar date picker, however, it only seems to allow for a single entry. How could someone select multiple dates?

    I would like to apologize for any inconvenience, I'm afraid it is not possible with any of our available date fields/widgets.

    We have the Date Reservation widget, however, once a date is selected previously, it will not be available to be selected again by other respondents.

    If you have definite dates for the camp, perhaps we can use a different field or widget to meet your requirements.

    For example, we can use the Input Table field to list all the available dates and have respondents check which date(s) they want to participate in.

    Orm we can also use the SelectALL widget that has an option to select all the dates available in one click.

    Here's a sample form: https://form.jotform.com/80734494428969

    To add a widget to an existing form, please see this guide — How-to-Add-a-Widget-to-your-Form

    I hope this helps. If you have other questions or concerns, please feel free to let us know
