* Thank you for this wonderful plugin! What a difference not to have to hard-code
these forms from now on.
* Is there a way to include the Email Opt Out field so that we may capture people’s
mass mail contact preferences? I’ve tried adding the API name for the field,
HasOptedOutOfEmail but opting out on the webform does not pass through to the
Lead record in salesforce.
* Thanks in advance.

* Did you put in a value on your checkbox? e.g. 1 ?
* A checkbox with no value does nothing.

* Thanks Nick. I tried adding 1 to the value field of the checkbox (as well as ‘
TRUE’). Neither worked.
* Email Opt Out is a standard Salesforce field on the Lead record; am I only allowed
to add custom fields (ending with __c) ?

* Any “lead” field should work as long as it’s named correctly and has the value
SF expects.
* Here’s the code as output by the SF form builder:
* ` `
* As long as your field name is **emailOptOut** (capitalization is important) and
your checkbox has a value of 1, it should get transferred to SF like any other
field.
* But, this particular field has default security settings that make it hidden
from most users, so you may need to adjust those to even see the field in the
lead detail view (even after your edit the layout to add it).

* That did it Nick. The name I was using came from the Customize>Leads>Fields interface
in Salesforce, but the one you presented (from the SF Form builder) works great!
* Thanks!
