 * Hi there,
 * I would like to make it necessary to select one of the four radio-buttons. How
   tho do this in Contact Form 7? I have read the FAQ etc. but didn’t find the solution.
 * Regards,
    Driekes

 * Hayhay!
 * The [Official site](http://contactform7.com/checkboxes-radio-buttons-and-menus/)
   write it:
    _“Contact Form 7 doesn’t provide “radio*” is because a radio button
   is a required field by nature”_ So… 1st – If you want to use `[radio]` then use
   it with `default:1` option. 2nd – I use `[checkbox]` with `exclusive` option.
   Like this: `[checkbox* checkbox-2105 exclusive "Yes" "No"]`
