Google Forms add-on
Limit Google Forms choices before they run out.
Choice Eliminator helps form owners set limits for choices, hide unavailable options, show limited choices with strikethrough, accept payments with Stripe, and manage submitted responses without rebuilding the form.
Feature focus
Made for forms where every option has limited availability
Use Choice Eliminator for appointments, classes, event tickets, volunteer slots, lunch orders, product-style selections, and any workflow where respondents should stop seeing options after capacity is reached.
- Limit multiple choice, checkbox, dropdown, multiple choice grid, checkbox grid, and image choices.
- Show filled options as red strikethrough choices or hide them from the live form completely.
- Apply the same limit to every choice in a question with the bulk limit shortcut.
- View limit and response counts so admins know which choices are still available.
- Edit submitted responses, delete records, and send edit-response URLs from Response Manager.
- Add Stripe checkout settings when your form needs payment before registration is complete.
- Schedule response cleanup and restore choices for recurring surveys or repeated booking cycles.
- Use reset warnings and progress screens when old responses need to be backed up, cleared, and restarted.
- Notify admins by email when a choice reaches its limit.
- Require sign-in, limit one response per user, send responder copies, and show counts when needed.
- Close the form when all choices are full and show custom closed-form or validation messages.
- Allow external sharing for trusted domains when controlled access needs to work outside your own account.
Main advantages
More control than a simple option remover
Choice Eliminator combines limit control, visual feedback for filled options, payment workflows, and response cleanup tools in one admin-friendly add-on.
Limit more question types
Use limits across standard choices, dropdowns, checkboxes, grid questions, and image-based choices so one add-on can handle different form layouts.
Show unavailable choices clearly
Show filled choices with strikethrough to make unavailable options clear, or hide choices completely when you want the live form to stay short.
Fix submitted responses
Response Manager helps admins review submissions, correct records, remove outdated responses, and send edit links when respondents need to update their answers.
Support paid registrations
Connect Stripe payment settings when registrations, classes, or product-style forms need checkout before the response is finalized.
Stripe payment workflows
Use one form for signups, limits, and checkout
Choice Eliminator can support Stripe payment setup for forms that sell seats, collect fees, or require checkout before a limited option is confirmed. This is useful for paid events, classes, service appointments, and small product-style order forms.
Product tour
Real product screens for the main workflows
These screenshots show the actual controls admins use to set limits, restore choices, restart forms, configure payments, and decide what respondents see when options fill up.
See removed choices clearly
Set a limit for each choice and the add-on removes options after responses reach that limit. Removed choices are moved below active options in the add-on, shown in red strikethrough, and remain editable. Increase the limit above the received response count, save, and the choice can be restored.
Limit grid question options
Multiple choice grid and checkbox grid questions can be managed row by row, which is useful for appointment dates, time slots, class schedules, and other matrix-style forms.
Apply one limit to every choice
Use the bulk limit shortcut when every option has the same capacity. Enter the limit once, click Apply, and save the configuration instead of editing each choice one by one.
Schedule resets and restart surveys
Automatically remove old responses, restore deleted choices, and reuse the same form for hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or date-based cycles.
Reset with a safety warning
Before clearing responses, the add-on warns admins to connect a spreadsheet backup. When a backup is not needed, admins can still continue with Force Reset.
Track reset progress
The reset screen shows progress while the add-on prepares the reset, backs up responses, emails the backup, clears form data, and finalizes the restart.
Turn a form into checkout
Enable Stripe payments, add your publishable and secret keys, choose currency, and connect a payment step to paid registrations or order forms.
Use alerts and response controls
Notify admins when limits are reached, require sign-in, limit users to one response, send responder copies, and choose whether limits or response counts are visible.
Control limit-reached behavior
Choose whether filled options are disabled with strikethrough or hidden, close the form when every choice is full, write a custom closed-form message, allow trusted-domain sharing, and customize validation errors.

FAQ
Common questions
Which Google Forms question types can Choice Eliminator limit?
It is designed for multiple choice, checkbox, dropdown, multiple choice grid, checkbox grid, and image choice workflows.
Can filled choices be hidden instead of shown with strikethrough?
Yes. You can use strikethrough choices when you want users to see what is already unavailable, or hide unavailable options when you want the form to stay shorter.
Can I apply the same limit to many options quickly?
Yes. Use the bulk limit control to apply one limit to every choice in a question, then adjust individual choices only when needed.
Can the add-on restart a form automatically?
Yes. Scheduled reset workflows can remove old responses, restore choices, and prepare the same form for the next survey, event, or booking cycle.
Why does the add-on use a custom preview URL?
The custom preview URL lets the add-on control choice availability and show the current option state to respondents.
Can I collect payments?
Choice Eliminator can support Stripe payment setup for forms that require checkout as part of registration or order collection.
Can admins edit or delete submitted responses?
Yes. Response Manager helps admins review, edit, delete, and manage responses after submission, including workflows that require corrections or cleanup.
Can I reuse the form for recurring events?
Yes. Scheduled cleanup and restore workflows help remove old responses and reopen choices for the next event, class, or survey cycle.
