➤ ➤ ➤ FEATURES  Choice Eliminator ➤ ➤ ➤ 

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. 


➤ ➤ ➤ USE CASES Choice Eliminator ➤ ➤ ➤ 

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. 


➤ ➤ ➤ SHORT DESCRIPTION Form Limiter ➤ ➤ ➤ 

Activate or deactivate your Google Forms based on a variety of rules.


➤ ➤ ➤ SHORT DESCRIPTION Choice Eliminator ➤ ➤ ➤ 

Use this addon to remove options from dropdown questions, multiple choice questions or checkbox questions. This addon will avoid doubling up your time slots. You can set individual limits for each timeslot or the same limit for each option. The choices removal addon from AddonForge is one of the first Choice Eliminator for Google Forms addons in the Google Workspace Marketplace.


➤ ➤ ➤ 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 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 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.

2) The sidebar is completely blank
Again, the cause for this error is outside the 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.

3) In addition we recommend using dropdown questions instead of multiple-choice questions. The values / choice options of multiple-choice questions are not updated in real time by Google Forms, thus the addon might fail to eliminate options accurately.
