Short Intro:
Unfortunately, Jetformbuilder has no option at the moment to set maximum items in repeater field (group). However, we can do an alternative solution to fix the issue by adding the script below. You can add this using HTML widget in the page where the form is being used or through functions/enqueueing script.
Problem:
Maximum items in repeater field.
The solution can be found below. To set maximum items, we've declare a variable max_repeater_items where you can set maximum repeater items. For the extra feature notice message, you can set the message there as well when repeater reach its maximum repeater items by setting notice_message. You can then style it by using the id #notice container.
Solution:
<script>
jQuery(function($){
var max_repeater_items = 3
var notice_message = 'The maximum repeater field has been reached!'
$(document).on('click', 'button.jet-form-builder-repeater__new', checkRepeaterItems)
$(document).on('click', 'button.jet-form-builder-repeater__remove', checkRepeaterItems)
function checkRepeaterItems(){
var count_repeater_items = $(document).find('.jet-form-builder-row.field-type-repeater-field .jet-form-builder-repeater__items .jet-form-builder-repeater__row').length;
if(count_repeater_items == max_repeater_items){
$('button.jet-form-builder-repeater__new').attr('disabled', 'disabled').hide();
$('.jet-form-builder-repeater__actions').append('<p id="”notice-container”">'+notice_message+'</p>');
}
else{
$('button.jet-form-builder-repeater__new').removeAttr('disabled').show();
$(document).find('#notice-container').remove();
}
}
})
</script>
