 * I would like to check some checkbox from url parameter using default:get, but
   it is very unclear how to get this to work. I did find a couple of references
   to this from a couple of posts but they were not any clearer. Could someone please
   provide me with an example. Let’s say I have this field:
   [checkbox plans_checkbox
   default:get use_label_element “Individual Education Plan” “Individual Health 
   Plan” “504 Plan” “Behavior Support Plan” “Multi-Tiered Supports Plan” “Safety/
   Crisis Plan” “Other: Please list below”]
 * How would the url parameter look to check one of these boxes? I appreciate any
   assistance.
