Channel entries fields in a list of checkboxes, with Freeform (or any other solution)

    Hi,

    I have a website running EE 2.5.2 with Freeform Pro 4.0.6. The website is about events people can subscribe to. Freeform is currently used to subscribe to one event. All events are (of course) entries in a channel field.

    I’m looking for a way my users can use a select multiple events from a list of checkboxes and do a ‘multi-subscribe’.

    In Freeform, I found the ‘checkbox group’ field with ‘load from channel field’ option. But it just displays a list of titles. I would like to (at least) also include a date and order the choices by date. Possibly I’d like to also include a category field.

    Is there a way to do this? I’ve looked around the Freeform documentation, googled and searched the forums but found nothing that specifically solved this problem.

    Any help is appreciated!

    Thanks in advance,
    Marijn

    Thanks for your reply Ahmad!

    I also asked this in the EE stack exchange and got a very useful reply from the Solspace team.
