How to allow selection of only one Checkbox option?

    Hi all,

    I am trying to set up some questions with specific answers using checkboxes e.g.

    “Have you applied here before? Yes / No”

    Is there any way to allow only one checkbox to be selected, or better have the other box(es) de-select when you choose a different option. At the moment i can only get it so you can select both.

    I’m sure it’s probably fairly easy but I can’t figure out how…

    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Thanks,
    Alex

    do you nit think using a radio or dropdown would be better in this situation? checkboxes are made to be multiple.

    Checkboxes look much cleaner from a user point of view for binary questions, particularly on tablets, so I really do want to use checkboxes and not a drop down.

    perhaps try the “toggle switch” ?

    other than that, you’ll need to implement a custom javascript solution.

    I’ll go with Radio for now, but thanks for the help, much appreciated
