You may be able to solve this issue by recreating the PDF in a different PDF editor. Some PDF viewers don’t render checkboxes correctly in some PDF files. You either need to switch to using a listbox in your PDF or rename your checkboxes such that each has a unique name and then map them appropriately. If you need to display a different value in the CF7 form, you will need to create a value mapping or use pipes.ĬF7 allows you to have multiselect checkboxes, however, PDFs can’t have multiple values with checkbox fields. Make sure your PDF checkbox/radio field’s exported value matches the value of the CF7 form’s checkbox tag. My checkboxes and/or radio buttons are not getting filled, what is wrong? Date PDF fields must be formatted with the format mail-tag. Sometimes PDF form fields have validation scripts which prevent value with an incorrect format to be filled in. If you reuploaded and reattached your PDF file and your mappings were using the old attachment ID then your mappings will no longer work and you will need to recreate them. Make sure the mapping exists in the list of mappings and the field names match. My fields are not getting filled, what is wrong? Field value mappings can also be created, allowing filled PDF fields to be filled with data that differs from the originally filled values. Mappings can be associated with a specific PDF attachment or all PDF attachments. CF7 fields can be mapped to multiple PDF fields. The field mapper tool allows you to map fields individually and, when needed, generate new CF7 fields on the fly. How are CF7 form fields mapped to PDF form fields? Enterprise Extension is available if your business requirements prevent the use of a third party API. It is recommended to have a working SSL/TLS certificate validation with cURL. Working with PDF files is done through Pdf.Ninja API.
