This guide explains how to configure the available options for fields that allow users to make a choice, such as dropdown menus (select), single choice buttons (radio), or multiple choice checkboxes (multi-checkbox).
Each option consists of two fundamental elements: the Value (what is saved in the system) and the Text (what the user sees on the form).
Procedure for Configuring Options
First, make sure you have selected a field type that supports options (such as Select, Radio, or Multi-Checkbox).
1. Select the Field Type
1. Within the field editing section, locate the dropdown menu Tipologia input.
2. Select one of the following options:
- Select (Dropdown menu)
- Scelta singola (
radio) - Scelta multipla (
multi-checkbox)
Once you select one of these types, the section dedicated to entering options will appear automatically.
2. Access the Options Section
1. Scroll down until you find the section containing the list of options (often labeled internally as "opzione" or associated with "Valori select").
2. Use the Aggiungi opzione button (or a similar button with a + icon) to create a new option row.
3. Define the Value and Text of the Option
For each new option row added, you need to fill in two fields:
A. Valore (Internal Data)
1. In the field labeled Valore, enter the data that will actually be saved in the database or sent to the system when the user selects this option.
- Example: If the option is "Italia", the Valore could be
IT. - Important: The Valore must be unique and should not contain spaces or special characters.
B. Testo (User Display)
1. In the field labeled Testo, enter the text that the user will read on the form.
- Example: If Valore is
IT, Testo will be "Italia". - Note: This field supports translations if the system is configured for multiple languages.
4. Repeat and Save
1. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for all options you want to make available in the field.
2. Once all options are configured, proceed with saving the form.
