    I am needing to make multiple areas on my form to group certain towns and business names within those groups.

    I need to be sure the users of the form an only select a TOTAL of 7 from the entire list not 7 from each section.

    Thanks!

    Thank you for contacting us.

    I've checked your form and I assume you are referring to the Weekly Appointment Setter widget, right? I see the widget is currently set to have a maximum of 7 selections from the list.

    Or perhaps you want to limit users to select 7 items from all the Weekly Appointment Setter widget? Can you please confirm so that we can advise?

    We look forward to your response.

    Yes I want 7 total selections from ALL options in the Weekly Appointment
    options. I now my data is not days or times but this seemed to fit what I
    was looking for. Thanks for your help.

    Hi there,

    Unfortunately, it's not possible to limit a user selection across all the items from the Multiple Weekly Appointment widget set on your form. You are only allowed to set a separate limit for each of the widgets.

    As a workaround, you can put a warning message using a Paragraph text stating that the maximum allowable selection is 7, and I see you already have that on your form.
