Hi,

I was forced to turn off my GDPR compliance generic checkbox because users can no longer register on my website after the 5.6 update. It seems like it does not get the input from user no matter checked or not.

Here is my code:

<div class="gdpr-wrapper">[cred_generic_field type='checkbox' field='gdpr-agreed' class='agreed']
{
"required":1,
"default":"",
"label":"Съгласен съм"
}
[/cred_generic_field]с <a href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>">политиката за поверителност и усовията за ползване</a>.</div>

Thanks in advance!

I tested that on my own site and can confirm it is not working, although when I tested it with earlier plugin versions pre-5.6 it also was not working, so I'm not sure when the problem began.

In any case, it is confirmed, and I've escalated it to the developers so that it can be fixed.

I'll let you know when there is a solution to share.

I can confirm that it did work prior to installing the pre-5.6 related Toolset updates.

It is a fresh feature that I just added, it was tested and confirmed working.

Thanks for the update and I hope to get a quick solution due to the sensitivity of the topic.

Hi there

I have an update from the developer, who says it fails because there is no setting provided for the default value.

Add a value for the option—anything, e.g. 0—and then the field should work correctly.

They are going to make some changes to handle this correctly, but if you provide a value for the default this will work, and I think we can close here.

Okay, I changed

"default":"",

to

"default":"0",

And it worked!

Thanks!
