    Is it possible to limit times in the date picker. Not just dates but the hours?

    Hello Gwenies,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Unfortunately, it's not possible to add a limit to the Time section of the Date Picker element. I've gone ahead and escalated this as a feature request to our Developer Team. When or if it's developed depends on their workload, how viable it is, and how many other users request it. If there are any updates, we’ll circle back to this thread and let you know. In the meantime, could you please share more details about your use case? Perhaps we can help you find a workaround.

    Let us know if you need any more help.

    We use our form to take in orders. Our bakery is closed at certain hours and people can still order after hours for pick up. We note a disclaimer for the customers but they don't always read it.

    Thank You,

    Hello Gwenies,

    Thanks for getting back to us. I understand that your store is closed for certain hours and you want to limit the time. As a workaround, you can use the Appointment Slots widget which will allow you to set a limit per time slot. Also, you can set Lunchtime to block out the time for the closing hours in your appointment schedule. Check out the screenshot for the example:
