Hi Erica,
Some of these options do exist under "..." menu and "settings" but perhaps could be refined further.

In addition to limiting the number of responses to a whole form, it would be helpful to limit the number of people choosing a particular response to a question. For example, we'd like to create a sign-up sheet with multiple activity options, but each activity is limited to 16 people. We'd love to have an option disabled as a choice when it reaches the max number of people choosing it.

In any schoolorganisation this is a key feature. Totally agree with this request.
- Greg PortOct 23, 2017Copper ContributorExactly... Google has an add-on called form limiter that does this. I would like to do the same thing and have a sign up form that limits the number of spots available for a particular choice.

Have you looked at Microsoft Bookings? It may be a better tool suited for scheduling and event signups.

Bookings isn't suitable as far as I can tell. Bookings will not let me create a single event on a single date. It does allow for a max amount of people in a certain time slot, but as far as I can tell, that can be booked any moment during the working hours... But I could be wrong. Adrian Hyde

In a schoolorganisation there is to little money to spend on such luxuries as Bookings. Forms it a good alternative if only they would give us the option to make a limited subscribe option.

I tried bookings, still do not see how to put in limits there, so if you ask me als not possible.
Unless someone can prove im wrong.
- Geoffrey BronnerOct 15, 2017Steel ContributorI'd love to.... if it was available to EDU tenants.
