Schedule When a Form, Survey or Quiz Accepts Responses

Set an opening and closing time so campaigns start and end on their own, without you toggling anything by hand.

States

A scheduled item moves through three stages: Not open yet, Accepting responses and Closed. Visitors who arrive early or late see a custom page or are redirected.

Set it up

  1. Go to Sites and open the form, survey or quiz.
  2. Click Settings and switch on Schedule visibility.
  3. For Opens, choose Right away or Pick a date and set the date and time.
  4. For Closes, choose Never or Pick a date.
  5. Pick the Time zone that applies to both times.
  6. Design the before open and after close experience: write a message in the editor, or enter a URL to redirect visitors.
  7. Save, then test by temporarily setting times in the past and future.

Use cases

  • Event or webinar registration that closes at the deadline.
  • Flash sales and coupon promotions.
  • Contests with a defined entry window.
  • A "registration opens soon" page ahead of a launch.
  • Sending late visitors to a waitlist or next event.

Existing items

Scheduling is optional. Anything without Schedule visibility on keeps working exactly as before.

Good to know: Choose the time zone your team uses in announcements, so the stated deadline and the real deadline always match.
