How to Setup a Checkbox Field in Your Form
Overview: This guide will explain how checkbox properties function.
What is Required for a Check Box:
Note: Red Fields below are mandatory for successfully saving your new fields.
A. Label* - (First field) sometimes already filled out as "Select All That Apply." This is the title of the field that will display on the users end.
B. Sub Label - This is a secondary piece of text that provides additional context, instructions, or clarification for a specific form field.
C. Name* - This field is VERY IMPORTANT. This field will be what is displayed on your email notification/form submission internally. This gives you the ability to have an outward and inward facing field title for a field.
Important Note: If this field is not filled out, you will receive an ERROR when saving the form.
Example:
- What you may want the guest to see (Label/Outward Title): What time of date is best to reach you?
- What you may want to see (Name/Inward Title): Call Time
D. Hover Over - The enables you to include insight into a field once the user moves their mouse over a that specific field. Used to help users better understand a request.
E. Options* - The options field is where you can input all your checkbox options.
Add Fields - You can add additional field options, but selecting the plus sign.
Remove Fields - You can remove fields by selecting the trash icon.
Very Important: When you apply your options, you will need to copy the same text for option 1, 2, etc. into all three of the blue button fields for Label Field, Value Field and ID field.
4. Once you have applied your fields to your form, you can select the "Save" button to save the form to the system. This is located at the top right hand side of the window.
Note: This is only saving the form, but does not post to your website until you add it in the visual builder portion of your back end.
