    Hello,


    For the multiple choice element, how do I create a descriptive title and then a descriptipn of that item on a separate line eg;

    Dressed Crab

    Spanner crab, lemon, polenta, sorrel


    Also, is there any way to edit this formatting eg. making the descriptive title bold?


    Thanks in advance

    I'm afraid that can't be achieved easily in the form builder since any HTML codes on the checkbox option are automatically stripped off for security reasons.

    Example, you can't use break tag < br > to move text into the next line. You can't also use < b > bold tag to bold the letters. These are removed to prevent any possible Cross-site Scripting (XSS) attacks.

    However, what we can suggest is to use your form source code so you can freely modify or format the checkbox options.

    If you have any questions, let us know.

    Thanks

    By the way, I have also raised this to our developers so they'll make exceptions on the checkbox options formatting. I'm sure there's always a better solution in order to allow this. Once we have updates, we will let you know here.
