Hello all,

is there a way to add a (required) checkbox with a text link that opens a popup or Joomla article showing terms and conditions that need to be ticked prior to sending off the form?

This sounds like a pretty basic event to me, but I can't get my head around which element could work best here, but I can't find a way of setting up a basic checkbox to do this.

Thanks for any advice,
Chris

You can write the code inside the field name for the checkbox (in the wizard) like so:
I agree to the <a href='/my-terms-and-conditions'>Terms and Conditions</a>
You can probably create a popup off this but I'm not sure how to. What I did was create a hidden box, add a little jQuery so when clicked, it opened the article below it.
Hope it helps.

Hi Chris,

That will work OK- make sure that you only use single quotes in the Label box.

Alternatively you can build the code you want using a Custom Element element from the Advanced Group. That might be better if the link is long or complex, or you want to use a Modal window to display the T&Cs.

Hello Bob and gabedaly,

works great, thanks!! I'll just need to find out how to make the link open a modal window, but this basic solution works just fine for now😉 Thanks for your support!
