Configure CMS Form Options, Notifications & Schedules

Learn how to configure confirmation messages, automated notification emails, submission limits, and opening/closing schedules for Edlio CMS forms.

The Form Options tab in the Edlio CMS Form Builder allows you to automate communication with respondents, set submission deadlines, and route administrative alerts.

Core Configuration Options

  • Form Title & Status: Rename the form and toggle status between Open (accepting responses) and Closed (custom closed notice displayed).

  • Automated Schedule: Specify an automatic opening date/time and closing deadline. Once the closing timestamp is reached, the form automatically disables new submissions.

  • Submission Limits: Cap the maximum number of responses accepted (e.g. limiting camp registration to the first 50 submissions).

  • Confirmation Email to Respondent: Automatically send an email copy of the submitted form to the respondent's email address.

  • Admin Notification Emails: Enter email addresses of staff members who should be alerted each time a new response is received.

💡 Deadline Automation Tip: Use the automated schedule feature for time-sensitive school events like lottery enrollments or field trip permissions. Setting an exact closing timestamp eliminates the need to manually log in at midnight to close forms.
