Settings

This field doesn’t have any specific settings. It only uses common field settings.

Sample code

array(
    'name' => 'Checkbox',
    'id'   => 'field_id',
    'type' => 'checkbox',
    'std'  => 1, // 0 or 1
),

Data

This field saves the “checked” and “unchecked” values in the database as “1” or “0”.

Template usage

To get the field value, use the following code:

$value = rwmb_meta( $field_id );
// If field is checked.
if ( $value ) {
    echo 'Checked';
    // Do something.
}
// If field is unchecked.
else {
    echo 'Unchecked';
    // Do something else.
}

Or if you only want to display “Yes/No”:

rwmb_the_value( $field_id ); // echo 'Yes' or 'No'.
