Problem:
How to output labels of selected options of a checkboxes field and not the values?

Solution:
If you output a checkboxes field the stored values are displayed rather than the labels for the options. You cannot output the labels, but you can output custom strings for selected and/or non-selected options, which is available in the GUI when you insert the field, and which will insert the types shortcodes something like this:

[types field='checks' state="checked" option="0"]Custom title 1[/types]
[types field='checks' state="checked" option="1"]Custom title 2[/types]
[types field='checks' state="checked" option="2"]Custom title 3[/types]

The client wanted to be able to do this directly in a PHP template, and the solution in that case is to reproduce the above shortcodes and then use the do_shortcode function.
