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
- Go to Sites and open the form, survey or quiz.
- Click Settings and switch on Schedule visibility.
- For Opens, choose Right away or Pick a date and set the date and time.
- For Closes, choose Never or Pick a date.
- Pick the Time zone that applies to both times.
- Design the before open and after close experience: write a message in the editor, or enter a URL to redirect visitors.
- 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.
