A suggestion for checbox field

Hello @sdnazdi

I hope you are doing well today.

I couldn’t find any similar feature requests so will bring your idea to our forminator team’s attention, and we may be able to provide a custom code snippet so you can implement it quickly and consider adding it as a new feature in the next plugin updates.

We will get back to you once we have further updates.

Best Regards,
Amin

I attached some photos, I hope they are useful. I think this is specially useful when there are many checkbox and one person decided to choose all/none of the selections.

PS. I also think the label for check uncheck could be custom (like Error messages which have a default text as well as possibility to add custom text for Error), so that the form creator can write anything he/she wants for label (good also for non English forms)

Hi @sdnazdi,

I hope you are doing well today!

We have an update from our developers. You can use the following code snippet as mu-plugin.

<?php
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'wpmudev_checkbox_selection_custom', 9999 );
function wpmudev_checkbox_selection_custom() {
	global $post;
    if ( is_a( $post, 'WP_Post' ) && !has_shortcode( $post->post_content, 'forminator_form' ) ) {
        return;
    }
	?>
	<script type="text/javascript">
	jQuery( document ).ready( function($){
		setTimeout(function() {
			$('.forminator-custom-form').trigger('after.load.forminator');
		},100);

		$(document).on('after.load.forminator', function(event, form_id) {
            if ( event.target.id = 'forminator-module-6' ) {
                $('#checkbox-1 input').on('change', function() {
                    if ( $(this).val() == 'Select-All' ) { //Please change the checkbox option value
                        $('#checkbox-1 input').not(this).prop('checked', true);  
                    }

                    if ( $(this).val() == 'Select-All' && ! $(this).is(':checked') ) { //Please change the checkbox option value
                        $('#checkbox-1 input').not(this).prop('checked', false);  
                    }
                });
            }
        });
    });
    </script>
    <?php
}

Please create the first checkbox option with the label Select All and change the form ID 6 and checkbox field’s ID #checkbox-1 in the code

You can find more information below on how to use mu-plugins.
https://wpmudev.com/docs/using-wordpress/installing-wordpress-plugins/#installing-mu-plugins
and

It would be better to test this out on your staging/dev environment first before your live site and make sure you have the latest backups.

Kind regards,
