Conditional Confirmation for Checkboxes

    Hi,

    I'm trying to setup different confirmation messages based on what a user checks off, which is working great with the new conditional confirmation feature. But I also want to setup a different confirmation message if more than one checkbox is selected. Is there a way to accomplish this? I thought using the default confirmation would work but that did not. Right now, if a user selects more than one checkbox, it will always return the confirmation message based on the first checkbox selected...

    Thanks!

    There isn't any built-in way to do this currently. Our conditionals aren't complex enough to allow for multiple conditions like you've asked for.

    Is there a workaround or will there be an update to include this feature?

    You could give numeric values to each selection and use the pre-submission hook and some math to fill out a hidden field and use that as your conditional shortcode comparison value.

    If you have five options it would be something like:
    First / 1
    Second / 3
    Third / 7
    Fourth / 9
    Fifth / 15

    Then you could have conditions for each of them, and any combination.
    So if value = 18 then you know that the Second and Fifth option were selected.

    That sounds like a great idea, thanks so much for your help David!

    Just make sure you can't use the others to add up to one of the values.

    I didn't use 1/2/3/4/5 because two plus three is five and four plus one is five. Each combination has to be unique for you to really take advantage of this.
