Total Response Limit
A per-choice limit caps one option. A total response limit caps the form, counting every response whichever choices it picked.
Setting it
- Open Live form settings, from the Form tab in the sidebar or from your live forms on skyfield.cloud
- On the Respondents tab, turn on Limit total responses
- Enter a number under Stop accepting responses after
- Optionally, write a Message once the limit is reached. This is the same text the Schedule tab calls the form closed message: one message covers every way the form can be closed
The change saves as you make it. Back in the sidebar, the Live form settings row reads Stops at 120.
What happens at the limit
Once the total is reached, the live form stops accepting entries and shows respondents your message instead of the questions. The default reads: This form has reached its response limit and is no longer accepting entries. Your per-choice limits keep working underneath, so whichever runs out first is what stops the form.
Using both together
The two limits are independent, and each holds on its own. "No more than 200 people in total, and no more than 40 in any one session" is two settings, not a compromise between them.
Clearing it
Turn Limit total responses off. The form starts taking responses again straight away.
Licence
This setting needs an active licence to change. A saved limit keeps working on the live form after a plan ends.
