Configuring Properties of a Field with Checkbox List View

If you want to display a one-to-many field and its child fields as a list of checkboxes, configure the checkbox list view for the field. For example, if you want the portal user to select multiple product categories in a page that shows various product categories, use the checkbox list view.

When the portal users select a parent field within a hierarchy, all its child fields get selected by default. However, when the portal users select only the child fields within a hierarchy, the selection remains limited only to the child fields. The parent of those child fields does not get selected by default.

In a section, select the one-to-many field that you want to configure.

The

Properties

panel for the field appears.

Select

Checkbox list

Select a lookup field that contains the values you want to display as a list of check boxes.

To display the field values in a hierarchical format, select a parent lookup field.

To set the node or a field as a required field, select
