To pre-select a specific car type in a multiple options field on a form page in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open the project in Webflow Designer: Log in to your Webflow account, select the project that contains the form page, and open it in Webflow Designer.

  2. Locate the form element: Navigate to the page where the form is located, and locate the multiple options field that represents the car types. This can be a dropdown, a radio button group, or checkboxes.

  3. Access the field settings: Double-click on the field to access its settings. The settings panel on the right side of the screen will now display the options for the field.

  4. Add options for car types: Under the Options section of the field settings, add the various car types as options. You can specify the display text and the corresponding values for each car type.

  5. Pre-select a car type: To pre-select a specific car type, you need to set the default value for the field to the value of the desired car type. Look for the Default Value or Initial State option in the field settings and enter the value of the car type you want to pre-select.

  6. Save and publish: Once you have set the default value, save your changes and publish the site for the changes to take effect.

Now, when the form page is loaded, the specified car type will be pre-selected in the multiple options field. Users can still choose a different car type if needed.

It's important to note that the specific steps may vary slightly depending on the type of form field you are using (dropdown, radio buttons, or checkboxes), but the general idea remains the same.
