Hi Toolset,

I'm using a user field with checkboxes and i would like to output the values as a unordered list instead of comma separated list. Any idea how to solve this? Thanks!

Hi Menno,

Thank you for contacting us and I'll be happy to assist.

To show your checkboxes values in an unordered list, you can add them as:

<ul>
<li>[types field='topics-covered' separator='</li><li> '][/types]
</li>
</ul>

To add different labels or for more control over the markup, you can also use “Fields and Views” button in your content template.

When you'll click it to insert the field, you’ll see the option “Custom values for selected and not selected states”.

Please select it and wrap your selected values, inside

<li></li>

and leave the unselected ones empty.

After inserting the field, you can wrap all the fields inside a

<ul> </ul>

e.g.

<ul>
[types field='topics-covered' state="checked" option="0"]<li>Sports</li>[/types]
[types field='topics-covered' state="checked" option="1"]<li>Community</li>[/types]
[types field='topics-covered' state="checked" option="2"]<li>Politics</li>[/types]
</ul>

I hope this helps! Please let us know if you need any further assistance.

Thanks Waqar! I had to get rid of the comma and have each value on a new line, so i used this code to remove it and replace it with a break:

<?php echo types_render_usermeta( 'opening-hours', array( "user_id" => $curauth->ID, "separator" => "<br>") ); ?>
