    I have checked on your form and you have have used Multiple checkbox element you need to change to single checkbox element to restrict users to choosing only one option in a checkbox.

    Once you have changed the element you will need to update the conditional logic to use the new form element.

    You misunderstood my question. I am not talking about the basic elements single choice versus multiple choice. I am talking about a WIDGET in the widgets section that is Entitled BUTTON CHECKBOXES. In that widget i want to restrict it to one choice only.

    My apologies for the misunderstanding. I have checked on the options for the Button Checkboxes and unfortunately supports multiple selection.

    We can still use the standard single choice element and customize radio button to be more fancier. Below is a sample of a CSS customized single choice element.

    Can you make the the appearance of the buttons match that of the Button Checkboxes widget? In other words, each selection be its own clickable box.

    If you need single selection (similar to a Radio Button), with the same look and feel of the Button Checkboxes Widget, use the Button Radios Widget instead.

    They look exactly the same but this behaves like a Radio Button which only allows single selection.
