Checkboxes Group multiple selection values to DB

scottshort 10 Jul, 2013
Hello

In my first form I have created a checkboxes group for user to check which social media they use. It is intended to allow for multiple choices. For some reason, this field is not populating database. I have tried it with multiple selections and with only one selection. Is there a setting I am missing to get this to send to database correctly? And how does database handle fields with multiple selections? Will this also pertain when I have a dropdown that allows for multiple choices? And lastly, radio buttons will never allow multiple choices?? Thanks

Regards
Scott

Hi Scott,

Please see this FAQ about multiple choice elements.

Please see this FAQ about check-boxes and radio buttons - radio buttons do only allow a single selection.
