Checkbox pre-checked before submit

I'd like to know if is possible make some checkbox pre-checked when the form appears .
Maybe I should add custom code in "On Submit code - before sending email"?Which code?

Hi raygold,

Edit the Form HTML in the Form Code tab and add checked="checked" to the input that you want to have checked.

Thank you Bob,Can I do the same with textbox or radio button?
Which code should I add?

Hi raygold ,

A radio button group is the same; use selected="selected" for a drop-down.

I don't think that it means anything to have a text input pre-selected. You can set a value with value="some text" though.

Thank you again,and thanks for Chronoforms that's one of the most powerful joomla components.

Edit the Form HTML in the Form Code tab and add checked="checked" to the input that you want to have checked.

I want to see pre-checked values in my form in CheckBox Group element ....

When I do this, then save - all OK. But if I want to edit my form again (I do this via Wizard in Edvanced mode) - this code disappeared 😟

I'm tried to add value in field Checked value, but this don't work. 😫
That meens that I need to add my code every time when edit my form ??? :?

Hi RoJa,

Adding the value in Checked Value should work - it does need to be the same whatever show in the value='????' part of the Form HTML

Hi RoJa,

Just put choice_2 in the box - not quotes, no value=

Bob

No effect ... 😟

Hi RoJa,

By all means email or PM me the site URL and a SuperAdmin login and I'll take a quick look.

Bob

All this - for a corporative site, so I can't do this ... (I hope you understand me, why) 8)
Tell me what I need to do - I'll do this.

Hi RoJa,

It's working OK here.

Please take a Form Backup using the icon in the Forms Manager and post it here (as a zipped file) or PM or email it to me and I'll take a closer look.

Bob

TestForm backup in attachment.

Аnyway thanks.

GreyHead, did you find a solution of this problem? I need to move on, but I cant ... HELP! 😫

Hi RoJa,

If I restore your form into my site then there is no checked value. But as soon as I re-save it in the admin area and re-load the form page the checked value shows correctly :-(

Please check that you have the latest release RC1.9 and that there are no extra spaces in the Checked value box.

I don't know what else to suggest :-(

Bob

This is wonderful! As soon as I installed RC 1.9 over RC 1.8, and re-save the form again - it worked !!! 😀
I did not know that there are already Chronoforms v.4 RC 1.9, sorry ... :?

Many, many thanks !
