What is the issue the author is facing with the checkbox values in Webflow forms?

The issue the author is facing with the checkbox values in Webflow forms is that they are unable to retrieve the values of the checkboxes when the form is submitted.

To resolve this issue, the author will need to use custom code to access the checkbox values. Here's how they can do it:

1. Add a custom attribute to each checkbox element:

• Select the checkbox element in the Webflow Designer.
• Go to the Settings panel on the right-hand side.
• Click on "Add Attribute" and give it a name, such as "data-custom-value".

1. Set the custom attribute for each checkbox:

• For each checkbox, set the data-custom-value attribute to the desired value. For example, if you have a checkbox for "Option 1", you can set its data-custom-value attribute to "option1".

1. Use JavaScript to retrieve the checkbox values:

• Add a custom code block to the site by going to the Project Settings in the Webflow Designer.

• In the "Custom Code" tab, add a new "Before " code snippet.

• Write JavaScript code to retrieve the checkbox values. Here's an example:

  ```javascript
  // Get all checkboxes on the form
  var checkboxes = document.querySelectorAll('input[type="checkbox"]');

  // Store the checkbox values in an array
  var checkboxValues = [];
  checkboxes.forEach(function (checkbox) {
  if (checkbox.checked) {
  // Push the value of the checkbox into the array
  checkboxValues.push(checkbox.getAttribute('data-custom-value'));
  }
  });

  // Log the checkbox values to the console
  console.log(checkboxValues);
  ```

1. Test the form:

• Publish the site and test the form submission.
• When the form is submitted, the JavaScript code will log the values of the checked checkboxes to the browser console.

By following these steps, the author will be able to retrieve the checkbox values from the Webflow form and use them as needed.
