How do I add multiple email ids in the form?

    for the last support ticket - I disabled the live form on the site while I work out these issues with you. 

    I have added the fields and added a condition to show them if someone registers for more than 1 person for a particular class. 

    However, if I would like x # of email fields to show based on the total extra # of seats registered for, how would I do that?

    You may add one more calculation field in order to calculate a total number of seats:

    You can also hide that field.

    Then, use it in the show field conditions like this:

    and so on.

    the problem with this is that I only need to calculate the total number of seats if for a particular class the number is greater than 1.  If it equals 1, then the additional email fields do NOT need to show up at all. 

    So, if someone registers for 3 classes, 1 seat for each, then no additional email fields need to show.

    But, if someone registers for 3 classes, 2 seats for one class, and 1 for each of the others, I only need 1 additional email field to show.  Does that make sense?

    So for each of the Inventory option, you should have 4 email fields as you have to manually right conditions on each Invetory quantity to show the email if the user selects 2, 3, 4.

    Instead of building this complex logic in the form, I suggest you add the Configurable List which has the add more button. The user can add multiple emails by clicking on add more button.

    Please give it a try and let us know how it goes.

    Thanks.

    this is great!  thx for suggesting it.  However, I can't seem to widen the blank box for poeple to enter their email address into.   Can you fix that?

    I have injected CSS code to increase the width of the textbox in the Configurable list:

    input[type="text"] {
     width: 250px;
    }

    Thanks.

    this worked.  thank you.  However, can the blank textbox where they will enter their emails be shown to the right of "Enter Guest(s) Email Information here"?

    Also when the autoresponder email and the notification email go out, will ALL the guest emails populate one under the other if there is more than one?

    Let me inject CSS to align the widget to the right side. I'll get back to you in some time.

    Thanks.

    If you preview the form, you could see the Configurable list aligned right side of the widget.

    In the notifications, all the email would be populated one after another:

    excellent.  thx.  Is there a way to preview without disabling the 2nd enable date which is set for 2/11? I had to set that date to today to view.

    As a workaround, you may change the date when you access the form using URL parameters.

    For example:

    https://form.jotform.com/200275125425143?enableDate[month]=01&enableDate[day]=01&enableDate[year]=2020
