About Checkbox Element
The Checkbox Element is used to create interactive fields where visitors can agree or disagree with certain options, such as terms of service, subscription to newsletters, or consent to share information.
Note: The Checkbox Element can only be used within a Contact Form or Newsletter Form. Ensure you have added one of these forms before using the Checkbox Element.

Checkbox Element Settings
Click the checkbox element to open its settings.
Content
This field allows you to specify the label text next to the checkbox. For example, you can write:
- “Subscribe to our newsletter.”
- “I agree to the terms and conditions.”
This text should communicate the purpose of the checkbox to visitors.
Text
TextCustomize the text style, including font type, size, color, and line height, to match your design preferences.
Required
Enable the Required toggle to make the checkbox mandatory for submission.
This ensures users must check the box before proceeding with the form, which is useful for legally binding agreements or essential consents.
Selected as Default
When enabled, the checkbox will appear pre-selected (checked) when the form loads.
This can be useful for opt-in subscriptions but should be used thoughtfully to respect user choice.
Spacing
Adjust the spacing between the checkbox and its accompanying label text to create a clean and visually appealing layout. This ensures the form design remains organized and easy to read.
Align
Choose the alignment of the label within the checkbox:
- Left: Positions the label towards the left.
- Center: Places the label in the middle.
- Right: Aligns the label to the right.
Name
Assign a unique Name to the checkbox element. This is especially important for form processing, as it identifies the checkbox input when the form is submitted.
For instance, naming it “newsletter_signup” allows backend systems to recognize whether the user opted in.
