    Hola, estoy haciendo un formulario de agenda pero solo permite seleccionar cierto rango de horario, quisiera saber si se puede seleccionar mas de dos horarios en la misma agenda ya que no todas las reuniones duran lo mismo.


    saludos.

    Hi formularios_vinte,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Unfortunately, our Spanish Support agents are busy helping other Jotform users at the moment. I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in Spanish, let us know and we can have them do that. But, keep in mind that you'd have to wait until they're available again.

    Now, let me help you with your question. Unfortunately, it's currently not possible to book multiple appointment slots at once using the Appointment field. When the slot has been taken though, it'll be greyed out and it can no longer be selected. The workaround is to use multiple Appointment fields, however, it'll create a separate record. For example, if the slot has been taken on the 1st appointment field, it will still be available on the other Appointment field.

    To setup your Appointment type to Group so more than one person can pick the same appointment date. I'll walk you through setting that up:

    1. On your My Forms page, find your form and click on Edit on the right side of the page, to open Form Builder. 
    2. On the Form Builder page, hover your mouse over the Appointment field and left-click on it. How to allow users to select multiple appointment slots Image 1 Screenshot 40
    3. Click on the Gear icon on the right side of the Appointment to open Appointment Properties
    4. In the Appointment Properties window, click on the Advanced tab.
    5. Under the Advanced tab, in the Appointment Type section, click on Group, and then close the window.

    That's it, you're done. Now, more than one person can pick the same appointment date when they fill out the form.

    Or another workaround you can also consider using the Inventory widget to list your event instead. This way your users can select multiple quantity. See example below:

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes.
