This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: I have two required generic checkbox fields in a Form. When I submit the Form with the checkboxes checked, I receive an error saying that required checkboxes fields are not checked.
Solution: Ensure a default value of 1 is applied to required checkbox fields. Otherwise the validation script will fail to validate checked checkboxes.

I am trying to: get a post form to submit with a check on two required checkboxes(as generic fields).
Link to a page where the issue can be seen: It is still under developmen.
I expected to see: A form submitted and an entry created in the backend.
Instead, I got: An error message saying the fields are not checked. And the form reloads with the boxes unchecked again, and nothing is saved.
Hi Christian, thanks for your reply. About the information you asked about. I have used the drag and drop editor to add the fields. I have included the setup in the screens.
The code from expert mode(uneditted form the drag and drop builder) is:
<div class="form-group">
<label>[cred_i18n name='generic-filed-akkoord-algemene-voorwaarden-label']Ik ga akkoord met de hidden link">algemene voorwaarden[/cred_i18n]</label>
[cred_generic_field type='checkbox' field='akkoord-algemene-voorwaarden']
{
"required":1,
"default":""
}
[/cred_generic_field]
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>[cred_i18n name='generic-filed-akkoord-privacy-policy-label']Ik ga akkoord met de hidden link">privacy policy[/cred_i18n]</label>
[cred_generic_field type='checkbox' field='akkoord-privacy-policy']
{
"required":1,
"default":""
}
[/cred_generic_field]
</div>
