    Hello,


    Is there a way to enable a form at a certain time? I know I can set a time to disable it but can't figure out how to time it going live.


    Thank you!

    Hi Stacy,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Currently, it's not possible to enable the form on a specific day or time. But as a workaround, you can hide all your fields using Show and Hide conditional logic before the date you want your form to be enabled and display a custom message to the form. I'll walk you through setting that up:

    1. Click on the fields and press the Shift and Hide button at the top.

    2. Add a Paragraph field and custom message:

    3. Add a Date Picker field and set it to Current.

    4. Toggle ON the Hide option.

    5. Create a condition to Show the custom message and Hide all the fields when the date is not equal to the date you wish to enable your form.

    Here's the result:

    Now, if you want to add a specific time, you add a Time field, set it to Current, and Hide it:

    Then, add the condition like you see below:
