    In a specific form my customers buy a place (for example: tent in camping). 1 or 2 or 3 people or more can buy a tent.

    Ok, all it's easy but I have a limit por day. Maximun 15 tents por day, no more.

    How can I limit this?

    Thanks.

    You can set your form settings to limit the submissions to 15.

    What I understand this is a general limit.

    For me the limit is 15 for day.

    How can i restart every day for other new 15 submission?

    For example.

    If I use invetory widget. For example with limit: 15.

    Can I set the widget restart from 15 every day at 6:00 am?

    I think it's possible with conditional rule. Let me try creating a test form and get back to you.

    Here's what you need to do.

    1). Use the inventory widget to control the reservations

    2). Use the Time field to hide the field on a certain time and show after a certain time. Just make the time field as your form's timer and set it to hidden and set the time to "Current".

    Add two time fields to track the start and close of the time.

    3). The condition would be something like this:

    In my sample image, the submit button will remain shown if the close time is after 11:00am and start time is before 8:00am. 

    Please try this and let us know how it goes.
