Hi Keith,

There is nothing very special about the Checkbox group :-( If it isn't showing then there may be a styling/CSS problem that is hiding it somehow.

Please post a link to the form so I can take a quick look.

Hi again... I kind of worked around using the checkbox group in a previous project, but in my current project I must allow for the user to select more than one event.. so I believe checkbox group is the answer...

here's the form link:http://harmonyfestivals.com/index.php/contact/vendor-registration.html

This is what is returning in the email I receive:


Select Event(s) {event_checkbox_group_15}

I am sure it's a simple issue - caused by an omission on my end... I have emptied the cache after working on this.. not sure what I am doing wrong...sorry..

Actually...found the answer in a previous post... I had looked before posting here again, but to no avail... then of course as soon as I posted I found the post here that pointed me to dragging over a handle array .....works now... but now I can't seem to get a checkbox or radio button to be required... so off I go to that... thanks for all you've done...I'll buy you a beer..

Ok... so I am using Joomla 1.5.26......and chrome on Mac......and V4 on Chronoforms.....and I have a radio box that is required and left unchecked by user doesn't allow for submit, but will not show error so it is confusing to users obviously...

can u help?

I have looked at the code - looks ok... debugged.. no sign of issues......

thanks!

Hi,

I'm not sure what's the problem here, if you don't receive the checkboxes group data in the email then you need to have a "Handle arrays" action before the email, and if the validation is not working then make sure you upgrade to the latest version by installing it OVER the one you have.

Thanks for the reply... my main issue is the check box not working if I select required....of course this confuses the user..

I am using the most recent version....not sure what is could be....

Hmm, you mean the checkboxes validation doesn't work ? if yes then please make sure you have V4 RC3.5, earlier version had a bug, upgrade can be done by installing new one over the one you have.
