I have the following form set up.

Issue is: when checking the auto-add-log-item checkbox, the additional generic fields do not show.

Has been tested on a clean install of WP/Toolset/2018 theme.

Any ideas why this might be? How can I get the fields to display?

[credform]
	[cred_field field="form_messages" class="alert alert-warning"]
	<div class="form-group">
		<label>Item Title</label>
		[cred_field field="post_title" class="form-control" output="bootstrap"]
	</div>
	<div class="form-group">
		<label>Item Content</label>
		[cred_field field="post_content" output="bootstrap"]
	</div>

	<div class="form-group">
		[cred_generic_field type='checkbox' field='auto-add-log-item']
        {
        "required":0,
        "default":"",
        "label":"Add a log item?"
        }
        [/cred_generic_field]
	</div>

	[cred_show_group if="( $(auto-add-log-item) eq '1' )" mode="fade-slide"]
    
      <div class="form-group">
        <label>Notes</label>
        [cred_generic_field type='textarea' field='notes']
        {
        "required":0,
        "default":""
        }
        [/cred_generic_field]
      </div>
      
      <div class="form-group">
        <label>Date Checked</label>
        [cred_generic_field type='date' field='date-checked']
        {
        "required":0,
        "default":"[wpv-post-today]"
        }
        [/cred_generic_field]
      </div>

	[/cred_show_group]

	[cred_field field="form_submit" output="bootstrap" value="Submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg"]
[/credform]

Hi David,

Thank you for waiting.

To make the conditional group show or hide, based on a checkbox type generic field value, you'll need to set a default value, e.g.

[cred_generic_field type='checkbox' field='auto-add-log-item']
{
"required":0,
"default":"1",
"label":"Add a log item?"
}
[/cred_generic_field]

After that, you can use the conditional blocks like this:

[cred_show_group if="( $(auto-add-log-item) ne '1' )" mode="fade-slide"]
"Add a log item" field is not checked
[/cred_show_group]

[cred_show_group if="( $(auto-add-log-item) eq '1' )" mode="fade-slide"]
"Add a log item" field is checked
[/cred_show_group]

I hope this helps and please let me know how it goes.

regards,
Waqar
