But it does mean you'll have to use more fields than necessary to implement something like this. Doing it with a single checkbox field using some custom jQuery would be less cumbersome. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/letting-a-user-chose-1-or-2-choices#post-44845 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 18:32:30 +0000 Dimitris73 44845@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>OK, thanks.<br /> Would the solution I thought of work?

So they only allow a user to select one of the available choices.</p> <p>Checkboxes are multi-selection fields and the Multi-Select field itself is also a multiple selection field. So you would need to use one of those.</p> <p>Currently the ability to set a minimum and maximum number of selections is not a built in feature of Checkboxes or the Multi-Select field. You would need to implement this as a jQuery customization if you wanted to do something like that. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/letting-a-user-chose-1-or-2-choices#post-44811 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 14:42:27 +0000 Dimitris73 44811@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I ment drop down menu fields, not radio button fields.

I thought of using 2 radio butuon fields (the first required and the 2nd optional). But then the user could choose the same category twice by mistake (or whatever reason) and possibly cause bugs to occur. I am thiniking of having that first radio button field and then have an other one pop up using coditional logic. The 2nd one will have all the categories exept the category that was chosen in the first radio button field.<br /> Is there a better way? </p>
