Hi again,

I just wanna point that the snippet was in a file named functions_ee.php included in functions.php with require_once.

Once I put the snippet in functions.php file, worked.

Hi again,

I would like to ask something very related to the original question.

I have added one custom question type (session_checkbox) which should act like a checkbox. To try to acomplish this I have added this piece of code to functions.php

function ee_add_question_type_as_options( $question_types )
{
    $question_types[ 'session_checkbox' ] = __( 'Session Checkbox', 'ee_event_espresso' );
    return $question_types;
}

add_filter( 'FHEE__EEM_Question__construct__allowed_question_types', 'ee_add_question_type_as_options' );
function ee_generate_question( $input, $question_type, $question_obj, $options )
{
    if (!$input && $question_type == 'session_checkbox') {
        //must return an EE_Form_Input_Base child object, see event-espresso-core/libraries/form_sections/inputs. If they want to create a different class it needs to extend EE_Form_Input_Base and get autoloaded via EEH_Autoloader
        return new EE_Checkbox_Multi_Input( $question_obj->options(), $options );
    }
}

I have dequeued the script espresso_registration_form_single and enqueued a custom version of it to add this || val === 'session_checkbox' to the line 56 to let me add multiple options like in a checkbox question type.

Everything looks ok but once saved the registration form only the first checkbox checked is saved instead all checked values. If I go to the registrations admin zone and edit the answer for my custom question type, it’s saved correctly with the multiple checkboxes.

There is something I am missing or should I do something differently?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Josh, that worked like a charm.
