Radio Field
Purpose¶
The Radio Field provides radio buttons only one of which may be selected.
Field Creation¶
- The Label is based on the Title and appears in the output before the selected value.
- Radio buttons are added one at a time, each with Text and Value. The Text appears in the output. The value is used in the data entry form and each must be different. The first item in the list should have the Text set to - Select - and its Value left empty. This allows for the field to be unset and so not appear in the output.
- Use the drag icons to change the radio button list order.
Note: In this example, inclusion of the field type in the Title is for demonstration purposes only. Leave it out in your own field titles.
Data Entry¶
Simple: just select the required value.
Data Display¶
The following Site screenshot shows the field displayed in an article. The option Automatic display is responsible for the position of the field and your template is responsible for the design of the field.
The field Title is followed by the Text of the selected value.
