I'm new here and I have a couple basic questions but I can't find the answers. For a question with radio buttons, I'm looking to have 6 options and it only shows 5. It tells me to edit the field but I'm not seeing where to make the edit.
I'm also not sure where to tell the submit button to send info. Can it go to an e-mail address?
You can add your radio button field, click on the "edit" link on the right, then add the choices as needed by clicking the "plus" or "add" icon to the right of the existing options. You can add as many as you want, or, if you you have several, you can use the "bulk add" option to paste in a list of items and save them as individual choices.

Yes, the admin notifications can be sent to an email address. You would define that address that under the notification settings.. look for the notifications link in the toolbar above your form.
Thanks Kevin! I'll look for the notifications section to make changes.
I'm afraid you didn't understand my first question. I have added 6 items to be beside radio buttons but it's only showing 5 and telling me I need to edit the field (where/how) to show all six.
Yeah, I'm still not understanding.. So you have added a radio/multiple choice field with 6 items and only 5 are being displayed? Where are you getting this notice or error?
Okay. I'll admit I'm still missing something apparently but I'm glad you found a workable solution.
I am going to guess James is talking about this: http://minus.com/lViBKT08yk7Kw
When you have more than five choices, the default view shows 5 only with a note to click edit. When you hover over the field, you get the edit link in the upper right hand corner. If you click that, the field opens for editing, and you can see all the options.
This is only in the form builder. It has no effect on the front end display of the form at all.
Okay, thanks Chris. I knew I had a disconnect somewhere.
@James, were you able to make this work or do you still need assistance?
I'm new here as well I have the same problem with wanting to have more than five choices with the radio button fields. I can get to the edit view but can't see how to make my 7 options show. Or is 5 options the maximum for radio buttons and I have to use another type of field? I didn't understand the answer to this from the above posts.
There is no limit. When you click the edit link, the field should open and you should be able to see all the radio button choices. You may have to scroll vertically. Here is a view with only 5 options shown: http://minus.com/lfkP1YoEEoQ3J
Here is the edit link in blue (well, red, since I positioned my mouse pointer over it to get the hover text) with the hover text "click to edit this field" visible: http://minus.com/lOBvFqT1nxeKl
And here is the same field after I have clicked the "edit" link and opened the field for editing with all 6 choices shown: http://minus.com/lbqNV2q8MII5Su
Are you having success with any of that?
Thanks Chris I was doing what you just described but it didn't change things when I clicked on "close". Now I have just looked at the Preview and seen that all options show when you look at the form in Preview. Now I understand what you said in the earlier post
"This is only in the form builder. It has no effect on the front end display of the form at all."
Another question has just come up from looking at the Preview - can I preview the whole form (which I'm making multi page) as I build it without filling the required boxes in on the first page?
I guess I could build it as a single page form and put the pages in later or is there another way.
There is no built-in way to see the whole form without submitting the required boxes. You could do exactly as you described: build it as one page, then add your page breaks later.
