Description

The Gravity Forms Timed Entries adds a countdown timer to Gravity Forms forms, tracking the time each visitor spends completing a submission and imposing a configurable maximum time limit per form. Targeted at those administering online exams, timed quizzes or scored assessments, the plugin records the duration of each submission as supplementary data in entries and blocks new submissions after the time expires, preserving exam integrity.
