How do I add check boxes for each option of a form?

How do I add check boxes for each option of a form?

I have searched in the many discussions and found that many other people have had this problem.  Is there anyone out there that has found a solution to this problem? 

It seems kind odd that when specifying that you want checkboxes the system gets rid of every option and replaces it with a single check box.  Any assistance would be a great help.  Thank you.

The alternative solution could be to to select the form  field with 'Input Type' as 'Select' and enable the 'multiple selection'.

Thank you for the suggestion, but I should've mentioned that this is how we started this project and found that having guests use CTRL click to select multiple options was pretty cumbersome.  Check boxes make the most sense, it's just a shame that it isn't a more accessible option for forms in Marketo.

Daniel. One database field corresponds to one form field. You're taking a single multi-select field and wanting to turn it into 5 different check box form fields, and then automagically recombine that data into a single field. It doesn't work that way. That said it can be done with custom javascript.

We encountered the same problem with our subscription form. We wanted a lot of checkboxes that would feed into a single field. We ended up finding a solution through javascript. We also didn't want to use the CTRL+ select box because we found that many of our prospects didn't know about that shortcut and it was cumbersome to use. You can see our example here: http://go.nelson.com/subscribe.html. All of the checkboxes under 'Interests' go into a single field, and all of the checkboxes under 'Grade" go into another field.

What you're asking for is definitely possible, just not out-of-the-box. You'll need a developer to create it custom for you.
