    How to set CheckBoxList items to be checked by default

    Hi,

    Does anybody know how I can create a checkbox list data type with the items checked by default but can be unchecked and saved in the Umbraco admin site?

    Many thanks,

    Braydie

    Hey Braydie,

    Something like Hendy's http://ucomponents.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=XPathCheckBoxList&referringTitle=Documentation is great for this.

    Hi Rich, thanks for your reply, however the items that I have in the checkboxlist are not nodes so using XPath would not be appropriate here..

    Hi Braydie,

    What's your data source ? how about an event handler with the Document.New event to automatically set the property value so that they all checked ?

    or use the Standard Values package ?

    HTH,

    Hendy

    Hi Hendy, 

    I ended up using an event handler to do this and it seems to be working okay! Thanks
