Issues with Required Checkbox

Required checkboxes must have a value… otherwise they are always empty and validation fails.

If you want a pre-checked required field (which seems a bit counter-intutive — if they have to check it, why even give them the option to uncheck it?) … you can’t do that at present. Sorry.

Give me your use case and I may make it into a future release.

That makes sense. I added a value and kept the field unchecked. ??

One more question. Is there a way for me to add ‘straight’ text to the form without having to select a field option?

You are doing a great job with this plugin!

Thanks

Use the HTML field type.

It is a pretty long piece of text that I have. Trying to use BR for line breaks. Does that work in this form?

The HTML field can have as much text and formatting as you want. The only thing it can’t have is form fields.

Just to clarify, do I put all the formatting and text in the Label field? or does it go in Value or Options? It doesn’t seem to be taking my html formatting.

Options

Ah! Perfect. One final question for you. Do I need to create a custom field in Salesforce for this? If so, what type of field should it be. If not, should I be putting anything specific in the “field” name field on the form?

Nope. HTML fields are display only, they are not submitted to SalesForce.

The Field Name is not used by the HTML field.

The Admin UI is desperately in need of some refinement (so these unused fields can be hidden based on the field type). That’s slated for 2.4 at present.
