    I've attached an image to show you what I would like to do. I need a checklist of options, when a few of the options indented. How do I do this?

    Hi fbcholton,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. You can use the Multiple Choice element. Let me show you how:

    1. In Form Builder, click on the Add Form Element menu on the left side of the page.
    2. Under the Basic tab, scroll down the list and choose the Multiple Choice field.
    3. Now, just drag and drop it to your form.

    Another option is to use the Checklist widget. Let me walk you through it:

    1. In Form Builder, click on the Add Form Element menu on the left side of the page.
    2. Under the Widgets tab, enter Checklist in the search bar, and drag and drop the widget to your form.

    I tried those. I need to have the following.

    • General
    • Registration Form
    • Newspaper Ad
    • Request for printed materials

    However under the registration form, I need 3 options but want them lined up under Registration and not lined up with all 4 points.

    • General
    • Registration Form
    • Registration for event has deadline
    • Prefer printed registration form
    • Newspaper Ad
    • Request for printed materials

    Can I do this?

    Hi fbcholton,

    Unfortunately, it is impossible to show other selection options in the Multiple choice element. I would suggest adding another multiple-choice or single-choice element to show once they select the Registration Form (see options below). Let me show you how:

    1. In Form Builder, click on the Add Form Element menu on the left side of the page.
    2. Under the Basic tab, scroll down the list and choose the Multiple Choice field.
    3. Now, just drag and drop it to your form.

    Then, you need to create Show/Hide conditional logic to show the other Multiple choice element once they select the Registration Form. Here's the conditional logic:

    Here's the result on my demo form:

    You can also try to use the Dynamic dropdown widgets that might fit your needs.

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes.
