Introduction
The Display in columns setting provides a built-in option in the Form Editor to arrange field choices into columns. You can select the number of columns and choose whether choices are displayed horizontally or vertically. This article explains how to use the new setting.
Note: Previously, arranging Checkbox and Radio Buttons field choices into columns required the use of Ready Classes. With the release of Gravity Forms 3.1, support for legacy markup and CSS Ready Classes will be entirely removed.
Locate the Setting in Field Settings
After adding a Checkbox or Radio Button field:
- Open Field Settings.
- Go to the Appearance tab.
- Check the option Display in columns.
- Select the desired column configuration (number of columns and alignment).
