Is there a calendar or date picker that will allow users to select multiple dates?

    I would recommend for you to use the Date Reservation widget. This allows submitters to select multiple dates.

    Note: When you enter the JotForm API Key, it would make dates unavailable for form submitters to select if a prior form submitter have selected it already. You can leave that option blank, so there is no way for the widget to check if a certain date were already selected before.

    As for the result: 

    Here's a screenshot of an Email notification after form with Date Reservation widget was submitted.

    I hope this helps. Let us know if you need any further assistance. Thank you.

    Leaving the API key blank now causes the widget to malfunction. Are there any other options?

    I see what you mean:

    It seems that the widget was updated, and a JotForm API is needed and is automatically added to make the widget work.

    I will escalate this to our developers to see if they can make the widget work with or without the JotForm API key just like it was before. 

    I cannot provide any ETA to when will this be done but please be assured that you will be updated via this thread should there be any updates on the request. Thank you.

    That's bein noted. Rest assured that you will be updated within this thread with any progress of the request that is, by the way, already assigned to one of our developers. Thank you.

    Yes, I have to agree with DTelegram
    this is a critical component of the form that we need.  Is there any progress?

    We've updated the majority of our widgets including the Date Reservation. When you add one, the widget configuration won't ask you for the API key. Please check again.

    Yes, thank you! I tried again after refreshing and clearing the cache and I did not come across any problems.  It appears to be working well now.

    Hello, I believe I'm in right thread.

    Once a date on Date Reservation has been picked, it can no longer be used. I need all dates available to be an option for my users. Help?
