# Set the look, limits and closing date

In the form builder, open the **Settings** tab. There you can pick a colour, switch the progress bar and your email address on or off, write the thank-you message, allow one response per person, set **Stop after this many responses** and choose a **Close on** date and time. Changes save automatically.

## How to set the look, limits and closing date

1. Open the form and click the **Settings** tab.
2. Under **Look**, pick a colour and set the progress bar and email options.
3. Under **After they submit**, edit the **Thank-you message**.
4. Under **Limits and dates**, set **Stop after this many responses** and **Close on**.
5. Click **Publish changes** if the form is already live.

## When to use it

> For a webinar signup, Anita sets Stop after this many responses to 200, adds a Close on date of the day before the event, and edits the thank-you message to include the joining time.

## Options

| Option | What it does | Default |
|---|---|---|
| **Colour** | Indigo, Teal, Rose, Amber, Violet or Slate. | Indigo |
| **Show a progress bar** | Shows progress through the sections. | On |
| **Show my email address on the form** | Otherwise people see only the company domain. | Off |
| **Thank-you message** | Shown after submitting. | "Thanks, your response has been recorded." |
| **One response per person** | Signed-in customers can answer once. Only for forms shared with XgenPlus customers. | Off |
| **Stop after this many responses** | Closes the form at that number. Leave empty for no limit. | No limit |
| **Close on** | Closes the form by itself at that time. | Not set |

## Good to know

- Deleted responses still count towards a response limit.
- Your plan has its own response cap, and the setting shows the maximum you can enter.

## Common questions

**What does the form show about me?**

By default people see only the company domain. Turn on **Show my email address on the form** to show your full address.

**What happens when the limit or date is reached?**

The form stops taking answers. People who open it see that it is closed or not taking responses right now. A form paused by a monthly limit may open again next month.
