    Can I adjust the calendar in a Configurable List between 2 different dates in 1 year.
    For example:
    July 7 to August 14.

    Hi Rene,

    Thanks for patiently waiting. Unfortunately, the feature you're looking for isn't available for the Configurable List Widget yet. The Configurable List widget's Date field features are limited than a regular Date Picker field. It's only used to collect date entries and you can only specify the date format.

    We've gone ahead and escalated your request to our developers, but when or if it's developed depends on their workload, how viable it is, and how many other users also request it. If there are any updates, we’ll circle back to this thread and let you know.

    As a workaround, you can use the regular Date Picker to allow users to select only dates from July 7 to August 14. Let me show you how:

    • In Form Builder, go to your Date Picker field.
    • Click on the Gear icon to open it's properties.
    • Go to the Limits tab.
    • Scroll down and look for Disable Date Ranges section.

    You can add this to only let users select the dates from July 7 to August 14:
