Please replace the ??? with your data!
[desc]: We invite two different sort of people to our events, so called "Stellvertreter" and so called "Mit eigenem Thema". Sometimes we have enough "Mit eigenem Thema" (max. 8 People) but would like to invite some of the other guys a while longer.
How can I solve this problem? Two different invitations?
Kindly Regards,
Volker

2 different approaches are possible:
- two forms, the limit option per form determines whether or not the form will be displayed
- one form, whether or not at all or what fields are shown is controlled by your PHP
#2 requires dynamic forms (see help page) and will be put together in real-time based on your PHP
"your PHP" needs to..
- call the cforms API to retrieve all submitted datasets to determine availabilty for your two categories
- depending on the results you need to add a drop-down field including the legit options
- if all 'seats' are taken, no form is shown

Hi Oliver,
txs. for the two tips. I think, #1 will be my favourite, `cause we`ve got 2 Dropdown-Boxes in the form, so i don`t see #2 to realize.
For #1: Is there a possibility to share some content? In this case the content of the date`s of the seminars? Otherwise I have to copy & paste the date`s from one form to the other.

not sure I understand.
the two forms are in fact two seperate forms with their own configuration.

Yep, but the date`s of seminars are the same. So, how can I merge the seminar date`s in two forms or is that impossible?
Example: There are clients who want only to participate at the seminar without working with us = 7 possible places and there are clients, who want to work with us = 8 possible places at one date, up to 15 people from both. how can i manage this?

from your description I understood that the two capacities are not connected.
it's always 7 + 8 (max) for a given date.
why not set the limit of form #1 (participants only) to 7 and the other to 8?

Hi Oliver, thx. for the answer. but that`s not the point for me – behind the two forms are the same date`s for the seminars. and I`m a little bit lazy, so is it possible to share the seminar-date`s between the two forms?

sorry for being dense. if you want to 'share' input field definitions, simply copy/paste the field label/string from one form to the other.
