    You should be able to just use a tag like ‘[checkbox example “option1” “option2” “option3”]’ and map it to the checkboxes.

    However, multiselect fields are not supported at the moment. I am working to add support this type of field. Multiselect fields are where you have to set multiple values for a single field.

    I’m new to this plugin (thanks, by the way – great work!), and I’m a visual learner, so I have a problem linking concepts to solutions. If you could help with the following example, it would really help me out.

    I have a pdf form that includes checkboxes for new and returning members. These are two separate boxes with two separate form names in the pdf. I’d like to convert that to radio button options in the contact 7 form (since we only want one option selected). I created a radio button field with the name “mem-options”, but the two fields in the pdf are labeled “mem-new” and “mem-return”. On the pdf tab, I can select the “mem-options” CF7 field, but not the individual radio buttons. How do I link the individual choices to the checkboxes previously created on the pdf form?

    *Note: I read the tutorial on radio buttons on the CF7 website, but am no closer to figuring out how to do this.

    I would recommend changing the export value of PDF checkboxes to something unique and then mapping the CF7 field to both PDF fields. Also, change the CF7 field options to match the export value of PDF checkboxes.

    Here is an example:

    PDF fields:
    mem-new, export value ‘new’
    mem-return, export value ‘return’

    [radio mem-options default:1 “New|new” “Return|return”]

    Map fields like so:
    mem-options -> mem-new
    mem-options -> mem-return
