How to Setup Time-based Conditional Logic for Gravity Forms the Easy Way

This tutorial will demonstrate how to show/hide fields via Gravity Forms’ conditional logic based on the current time. This functionality can be used anywhere conditional logic is available and is made available by the GP Conditional Logic Dates plugin.

Here are just a few examples of how this could be useful:

1. Time-sensitive Submissions
   Allow a Gravity Form to only be submitted during a certain time of day.
2. Time-dependent Confirmations & Notifications
   Display different confirmation messages or send specific notifications depending on the time of day the form is submitted.
3. Time-responsive Fields
   Show or hide fields on your form depending on the time of day.
