Limited number of form submissions at form and field level

I'm trying to find a way to limit the number of form submissions to 30. For an upcoming class in April, we're offering two dofferent days to take hte class (the 7th and the 8th). There is a limited amount of people who can sign up for each day—30 people per day. 

After 30 people have registered, it would be great if they received an email informing them that the class is currently full, etc. AND if they select the day that is full in the drop down, they get an error message telling them to choose the other day instead b/c the one they've selected is full.

Does anyone have any advice on this?

Thank you!

Limiting registrations is a requested feature.

You can certainly set the emails to let people know that the class is full. Before sending the email increment a value called "date1 - seats used". Then do an if then statement when sending the email. If "date1 - seats used" less than 31 send the email.

You could have the page let people know how many people have registered by using the same token.

Thank you, Jeff!

I was wondering...will adding a "Min. Number of Times" constraint work too?

Hey Kelley,
It may be a touch late for your April class; but our company recently solved this problem for one of our clients for an after party networking event using a webhook and tricky campaign logic.
You can check out how we did it here: http://hooshmarketing.com.au/blog/event-marketing/four-tips-to-building-a-limited-capacity-event-in-marketo/

Hopefully this could be helpful to you for future classes!
