# Setting up checkbox fields

1. On your Form Editor, head to **Build tab.**
2. Click **"Add a Field"** button then select checkbox.
3. From there, you can now add a label and a hint.
4. You have an option to create a sub label for organizing your choices by clicking the **"Add Heading"** button.
5. There are two ways to add a choice on your checkbox field, either you create a seperate choice one by one by clicking the **"Add Choice"** button or you can create several choices in one go by clicking the **"Bulk Add Choices"** button.
6. Once done, you may tick the **"Shuffle order of choices"** checkbox for randomization. Additionally, if you don't want your field to be left blank just tick the **"Require an answer"** checkbox.
7. Since you are using a checkbox field, you can set the minimum and maximum number of choices that can be made by ticking the **"Limit choices"** checkbox.
8. Personalize your checkbox field further by adjusting the alignment of the choices and the width of your field. You may also add Additional CSS class/es for a more advance customization.

**Here is an example of what your checkbox field may look like:**
