Example of a checkbox field in your site

Start creating "checkbox" fields

2. Click "Create new field"

3. Start typing your "Field name"

4. Select field type as "Checkbox"

Using "Value differentiates from label"

When you toggle on "Value differentiates from label", your option name lets you show one thing to the user while storing a different value behind the scenes

Example: Food Categories might have options like Bakery, Meat & Poultry, Fruit & Veg & Drinks but users see labels like Bread, Lamb, Banana & Sparkling Water. The values are stored, but the names are shown.
