Hey,

Just set the default value to true

I did but that does not make it checked.

Ok looks like it's a bug, will release an update today but to fix it you can simply update 

\Umbraco\Plugins\umbracoContour\Views\FieldType.CheckBox.cshtml 

and add

@if(Model.ContainsValue(true) || Model.ContainsValue("true"))

where it says

@if(Model.ContainsValue(true))

Great but one minor bug. If you don't fill out a mandatory field and hit submit it leaves the checkbox now "un-checked."

Ok issue added to the issue tracker http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/CON-356

I have the same problem with checkboxes being unchecked, if the form fails to be submitted. Any chance of a workaround?

Cheers

@Bjorn,

Yeah update the \Umbraco\Contour\Code WEBFORMS\FormsSampleSite\Umbraco\Plugins\umbracoContour\Views\FieldType.CheckBox.cshtml file

and where it says @if (Model.ContainsValue(true)) add || Model.ContainsValue("on")

Thanks but that doesn't seem to work when you have defined a default value. Then the checkbox is always selected, also when its unselected.

Cheers

Used the following workaround:

bool isChecked = IsPost ? Request.Form[Model.Id] == "on" : Model.ContainsValue("true");
