    I need a form that has multiple choices but each choice is a package that is structured like so:

     

    Package 1

    • Information 

    • Information 

    • Information 

     

    Package 2

    • Information 

    • Information 

    • Information 

     

    And the user would choose a package, but would only be able to choose one. How can I accomplish this?

    Hi,

    The easiest way to accomplish this is to create a radio button with each one of you options listed, then show the package details conditionally based on which one is selected:

    I added 3 "Text" fields, one for each option.  Those are shown based on which option is selected.

    This will allow your users to only select one package and based on that package, they will be shown the details of that specific package.  Here is my test form to show you how it works:

    Hi,

    You can do that by adding 'Radio Button' or 'Check Box' inside of your form. Difference between those two is that radio button allows user to choose only one of a predefined set of options while check box allows user to choose multiple set of options.

    If you want to add Radio Button go to Jot Form Builder and inside of Form Tools choose Radio Button Option. Just drag and drop it to your form. You will see that there is a possibility to add new option.

    If you want to add Check Box go to Jot Form Builder and inside of Form Tools choose Check Box Option. Just drag and drop it to your form. You will see that there is a possibility to add new option.

    At the top of Jot Form Builder you also have some options that you can use for styling your radio buttons and check boxes. Also see comment above how to make conditions considering choices inside of radio button option or check box option.

    Hope this will help.
