Description

Nextcloud:

  • Nextcloud-Version: 28.0.3
  • Forms-Version: 5.1.0

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I use forms to manage ask users their availability and make schedules based on it.

Describe the solution you'd like
It's be great to expand the time range question to allow multiple ranges to be submitted.
Would also be nice to be able to provide a minute step value, instead of just being stuck with the default one. The component already supports it (although it's limited).

Describe alternatives you've considered
Currently I have to make a multiple choice question with a wall of slots in 30min increments and tell users to check the ones they are available.
I've tried the polls app, but it's mainly focused on trying to find a common time for everyone, while I need to spread people to fill all hours.

I'm able to help develop the feature.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the existing time range question and its component, then trace how its value is stored and submitted. Done means users can submit multiple ranges and configure a minute step beyond the current default, with the existing question behavior still working.
