How To Use The Avada Checkbox Field Element

The Avada Checkbox Field Element allows you to place checkboxes into your forms. To start, add the Element to your desired Column in a form layout. Go through the options to populate and configure your checkboxes.

Add a label, decide if it is to be a required field, add an optional tooltip, choose whether your options are to be displayed stacked or floated, etc. You can add your own options, either individually or in bulk, or choose from a range of pre-populated choices, including countries, Days of the Week, Months of the Year, U.S. States, Years, and Days of the Month, and more. Read below for a description of all Element options.

Element Options

Location: The edit screen within each Element. You access the Form Builder Elements when adding an Element while editing a Form in the Avada Form Builder (Forms > Form Builder, from the Avada Dashboard).

You can deploy as many individual Elements in your forms as you need; there is no limit. Within each of the Elements, you will see a tab or tabs that house an array of options that make it possible for you to configure each instance of the Element independently, greatly enhancing your flexibility and creative options.
