How can I enable/disable this form during specific times?

    Hi I have a form that I would like only enabled from Monday to Friday between the hours of 6am and 8:30 am. 

    I would like to hide the form questions, but show a note saying "This form is currently unavailable. This form is live Monday-Friday from 6:00am-8:30am. Please complete this form during that time." 

    I've tried working on this with the show/hide fields but think I'm doing something wrong. Can someone help me? Thanks.

    I can see you are using conditions to hide the fields based on the date value. I suggest doing the reverse instead. We will SHOW them based on the criteria (Mon-Fri, 6:00-8:30).

    Also, we'll create conditions on a per-day basis. So there will be a total of 5 conditions (Mon-Fri). Here's an example:

    As you can see in this condition, we will only show the fields if it's FRIDAY after 6:00 and before 8:30 only.

    Do the same for Mon-Thu. You can just clone the conditions and just change the day:

    I have implemented this in a cloned form. Here's the link so you can try: https://form.jotform.com/202256595166965
