Hi There,

I've followed through on this thread and used the code mentioned by Luo as I have multiple check box fields I would like to populate

https://toolset.com/forums/topic/gravityforms-checkbox-values-not-passed-to-custom-fields-checkboxes/

The code has worked perfectly until I go to edit the post via cred form, at that point the fields are empty but the odd thing is when I view the same post from wp-admin the fields are populated.

Can you answer me as to why they don't pull through to the edit post form?

Many Thanks
Ed

Hello Ed and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Checkboxes field are stored differently in the database than a simple checkbox field. This means, that the code from Luo will not work, you will have to adapt it a bit. Check this snippet that is related to checkboxes fields, it may help:
- hidden link

I'll remain at your disposal.
