Overview
➤ ➤ ➤ FEATURES ➤ ➤ ➤ 

1) Limit choices by generic number limit
As an example: this choice eliminator addon can be used to eliminate each choice after 1 response.

2) Limit choices by individual number limit
With the help of this choice removal addon you can set individual limits for each of your options.

2) Limit choices based on sheet cell
If you need more complex choice limiting rules, just choose the “value limit” within  the choice remover sidebar. Use the rules “equals to (=)”, “contains”, “is greater than”, and “contains RegEx” to deactivate choices.

3) Restore options
Restore choices and start your survey again. Each form question can be individually restored after all options have been removed by the choice elimination process.

4) Final displayed choice
After all options have been eliminated by the option limiter, inform your participants with custom messages. 

5) Email notifications
In addition the choice limiter addon offers a functionality to receive notifications after the remove choices process for a question has been finished. 


➤ ➤ ➤ ISSUES ➤ ➤ ➤ 

1) Only the "Help" menu item does show up
This issue can not be fixed by us. Just reload the page, then all menu items of the choice eliminator addon will show up.

2) The error message "drive.google.com refuses to connect" shows up within the sidebar
This issue can also not be fixed by us. The error for this cause is outside the choices limiter addon. The cause for this error message is that multiple users are logged in within the browser.
Solution 1:
Just log out with all users, except the one which should be used to work with the response limiter addon.
Solution 2:
Use a different browser or the incognito mode.

2) The sidebar is completely blank
Again, the cause for this error is outside the option eliminator addon. The cause for this error message is that multiple users are logged in within the browser.
Solution 1:
Just log out with all users, except the one which should be used to work with the addon.
Solution 2:
Use a different browser or the incognito mode when using our choice eliminator addon.

Our addon is a successor of the no more existing Choice Eliminator 2 addon. Our addon offers more functionality than the deactivated Choice Eliminator 2. Please give our addon a try and see that you can do the same - and even more - as with the Choice Eliminator 2 addon.

There is no need to install other similar named addons like: Choice Eliminator 3.


➤ ➤ ➤ USE CASES ➤ ➤ ➤ 

You want to organise a consultation-hour for your students. In this case you could use a dropdown or a multiple choice question and so offer different time slots for them. You can then use our addon to eliminate options.

You can decide between 1) a generic limit: in this case each timeslot will be limited by the same number of responses. E.g. if you choose the limit 3, the addon will eliminate option by option after each one has reached its limit.

In addition, you can choose option 2) an individual limit for your appointment slots. In this case the addon will remove choice by choice as soon as the individual limit has been reached.

—

Another use case could be that you want to sell your products via a Google Form. Also for this situation you can use our choice eliminator addon to eliminate choice by choice.

Most probably in this case you would want to set an individual option limit for each of your products. You could set a choice limit of 5 for your product A, and for your product B you could set a choice limit of 7.

—

Other popular use cases are meetups where you need a limiting response count: event registration, survey, workshop etc. So situations in which you want to offer limited slots and those slots should be updated in real time. Our addon will remove choice options reliably as soon as the response limit is reached. 


➤ ➤ ➤ HAPPY CUSTOMERS ➤ ➤ ➤ 

Many teachers have thanked us for helping them to limit their surveys and events. There are also more exotic occupation groups using our addon: one ranger has used it to organise forest expeditions for kids, one baker has used it to limit his special bread sale, the application possibilities are endless!

I tried another extension and it failed quickly. CAPY to the rescue! It worked first try and was very easy to set up. I even had to go back in and add the elimination to two other questions that were multiple choice and it actually changed them to drop-downs for me...NICE! This was only a 5 question survey/sign-up sheet but it was so helpful that once an option was chosen no one else could pick that one. Saving me major time.

Very efficient, easy to use and understand. It doesn't restart options unless I manually press restore options. Recommend to watch the video, when you press the help button, to show you how to use the add-on correctly. Other choice eliminators won't save your edits on the form and will restore options randomly even after they have been chosen.

Not suitable for extensive participant numbers. We recently deployed this survey tool in a project involving approximately 500 participants, and encountered significant challenges when multiple users were actively engaged at the same time. The system failed to update the available options in real-time, resulting in instances of oversubscription. For instance, suppose there were only three slots left in a category, and 150 participants attempted to select them simultaneously. Despite the limited availability, the system allowed all 150 participants to proceed with their selections, causing an oversubscription of 147 participants. This issue undermined the efficiency and reliability of the survey process. Enhancements in real-time synchronization are essential for this tool to effectively manage large participant numbers and ensure a seamless user experience.

Very helpful app! I've been using it for over a year on an appointment scheduling form. It has made a tremendous difference not having to worry about overbooking. I can also block out sections of time as "unavailable", and it makes it very easy to reset your form choices in mere seconds. This has made my work so much easier and more efficient. The app developers are extremely helpful and very quick to respond to questions!

It worked at first until i received responses more than the limit i already set. Please help if there's anything i need to make note to as additional step because it literally helped at first. Now i need to check frequently to the responses then delete the choices once hit the limit.

Wonderful! Hosting meetings becomes easy. No more disclaimer necessary that multiple people can sign up at the same time. Great app and very helpful. Also, the developers are very helpful and respond very quickly. I've found using add-ons for forms to be very helpful in organizing the program, especially for registration purposes. Additionally, we were particularly impressed with the add-on's "Restore" feature. I found this feature to be invaluable during use, as it seamlessly brings back all previously removed selections. This feature is especially useful for forms that require frequent updates or changes, ensuring that important choices are not accidentally lost. Its an important tool in your forms toolkit. Thank you for creating this tool.
