Close Your Formware and Disable New Responses

There are many reasons you might need to stop accepting submissions—perhaps your event is full, your deadline has passed, or you’ve gathered enough data. Formware makes it simple to take your form offline at any time.

To disable new responses, follow these steps within the form builder:

1. Open Settings: Navigate to the Settings tab in the top menu of your form editor.
2. Access Scheduling: Select Access & Scheduling from the left-hand navigation panel.
3. Toggle Status: Find the option labeled Open this Form to new responses. Toggle this switch to the Off position to stop accepting entries.
4. Save: Click the Submit button to save your changes.

When a user attempts to visit a closed form, they will see a default message informing them that the form is no longer accepting responses. This ensures that users aren’t left wondering why they cannot access your questions.
