Checkboxes Component

Step-by-Step Configuration

  1. Question and Description: Enter the question text and, optionally, a description to provide additional context or instructions.
  2. Image URL: Add an image to visually enhance the question, or leave this field blank if not required.
  3. Shuffle Options: Set the shuffle option to Yes so each respondent sees a randomized arrangement of answer options.
  4. Feedback: Provide custom feedback for correct or incorrect selections. These fields work the same as in the Multiple Choice component.
  5. Answer Options: Define the answer choices for your question. You can also attach images to each option for a more engaging form.
  6. Adding More Options: To add more options:
    • Right-click an existing option row and select Copy.
    • Insert a new row above or below the desired position.
    • Paste the copied row into the new row.
    This allows you to easily expand the list of options.
  7. Required Question: Mark the question as Required to ensure respondents must answer it before submitting the form.
  8. Point Value: Leave this field blank if you don’t want to assign points for this question.
