The filter gform_field_choices currently returns $choices as a string. This is okay but limits what a developer can do.</p> <p>In my project I have a form that creates a post and attaches a category. Since there is no option to have categories only be EXCLUDED and only INCLUDED, my first thought was to use this filter to remove a few unwanted categories from this.</p> <p>Being that there are only a couple categories that I want to exclude and that there will be an ongoing list of categories to include, selecting the Selected Categories on the UI isn't an option.</p> <p>Either way, my suggestion is to have $choices submitted as an array instead of a string. Not only would that solve my own personal problem but would allow other developers to have full control of the output of the checkboxes.</p> <p>Thoughts </p>
