Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.I faced the issues with fields of types checkbox and checkboxes.
1. Cannot uncheck a checkbox - a checkbox still checked in a draft.
2. Data from the checkboxes field is not stored. The name of a single checkbox from a set is 'field_name[key]'. I found a solution to collect values from checkboxes in the object named field_name - this works for me.
Please look at my patch. Maybe you can make it in a more elegant way.

rymcveighkadantsew, your patch wasn't resolving the issue for me on a vanilla site. I made some alterations to your patch that is a little more IE friendly and pretty simplified. Would you check it out when you have a moment?

diaodiallo commentedI still can't have field of type checkboxes updated just like other fields(select, text ..) which are working well, I tried 1.0-alpha15 and 1.x-dev. Any idea on this or should I give more infos?
Thanks in advance.

gregglesFrom my perspective, it seems like this issue is fixed. If it's still causing problems I suggest folks either reopen with more details or file a new issue.
