Dropdown List / Checkbox Issue

    I have two separate dropdown lists on my online form which should be selecting the respective checkbox in the PDF. However, only the second dropdown works correctly. I have tried many different ideas and variations for the first dropdown, but I just can’t figure it out.

    The form fields in question are the very first 2 on the form. Once you complete the form, you will get a download link to check out the PDF.

    Any help would be appreciated. A temporary password to the site is “williamsport”. Thanks!

    What is your ‘ddlDumpster’ CF7 form-tag?

    It should be something like the following:
    [select ddlDumpster "Up to & Including (7) Days - $15.00|Duration_7" "Up to & Including (14) Days - $25.00|Duration_14" "Up to & Including (30) Days - $75.00|Duration_30" "Up to & Including (45) Days - $125.00|Duration_45" "Each Additional Day After 45 Days - $30.00|Duration_Additional"]

    Also, it looks like your duration checkboxes PDFs are named differently and, therefore, are separate fields. You need to create a mapping for each field:

    ddlDumpster	->	Duration - Additional
ddlDumpster	->	Duration - 7
ddlDumpster	->	Duration - 14
ddlDumpster	->	Duration - 30
ddlDumpster	->	Duration - 45

    I was able to get it to work myself using your PDF.

    Let me know if that helps or not.

    Thanks.

    My CF7 form tag is exaclty like yours:

    [select* ddlDumpster id:ddlDumpster first_as_label " "
"Up to & Including (7) Days -  $15.00|Duration_7" 
"Up to & Including (14) Days -  $25.00|Duration_14" 
"Up to & Including (30) Days -  $75.00|Duration_30" 
"Up to & Including (45) Days -  $125.00|Duration_45" 
"Each Additional Day After 45 Days - $30.00|Duration_Additional"
]

    And my checkboxes are mapped correctly just as yours are above. For some reason, it just doesn’t want to work for me.

    I ran out of ideas. I’ll have to look at your back end to figure out why it might not be working for you. If you don’t mind, send me a temporary wp-admin login to admin at maximum dot software and I will take a look.

    Just sent it over to you. Thanks.

    The only difference that I see is that you have an extra space after the dash. Looks like CF7 pipes don’t work when there are 2 consecutive spaces? WTF? I’ll see if I can report this bug to CF7 developer. Meanwhile, I’ve resolved your issue by removing the extra space.

    Holy shit! That is a crazy bug.
    Thanks for lending a hand. I was going cross-eyed.
