Hello. I have a form that has a Checkbox section on it with 5 choices. The site visitor can select more than once choice at a time. How can I set the conditional logic for the confirmation form to display a link pertaining to each of the choices selected? For example: If I choose, Option 1, Option 3, and Option 4, I want to be given the download link for each one I selected after I hit “Submit”. How can I achieve this? Kind regards, Tabatha ---

Hi @Jerryandtabatha, Welcome to the forums! [Gravity Forms Conditional Shortcode](https://docs.gravityforms.com/conditional-shortcode/) is what you’re looking for. There’s [an example in the docs for how to apply this to a Checkbox field](https://docs.gravityforms.com/conditional-shortcode/#show-content-if-a-certain-checkbox-was-checked). Change the field ID in the example to match your Checkbox field, adjust the value from `10` to the specific option you want, then include your download link in the middle. Note: it’ll probably take a bit of trial and error to get it working just right. Good luck! ---

Thank you! I will be testing this out today and report back. ---

I just tried the code: [gravityforms action=“conditional” merge\_tag=“{Checkboxes:Green Quadrant:value}” condition=“contains” value=“1”] My download link here [/gravityforms] After adding this code, and testing the form , once I hit Submit, no text appears at all on the confirmation message. Does the code look right to you? I am not sure how to find the “Value” of each option in the checkbox. ---

Update: I FIGURED IT OUT! This is the code I used on the confirmation message: **Thank you for your submission! Here are you download links:** [gravityforms action=“conditional” merge\_tag=“{Checkboxes:9:value}” condition=“contains” value=“1”] my download link here [/gravityforms] [gravityforms action=“conditional” merge\_tag=“{Checkboxes:9:value}” condition=“contains” value=“2”] my download link here [/gravityforms] [gravityforms action=“conditional” merge\_tag=“{Checkboxes:9:value}” condition=“contains” value=“3”] my download link here [/gravityforms] For each section of the code that has: {Checkboxes:9:value} The “9” is the number of the form ID : (you find this ID number in the form settings\>Click the title of the checkbox\>on the right side of the window you will see the ID number. And where it says: “contains” value=“1”] I set each checkbox value and change this number to match the choice value: Click on form settings\>click checkbox area\>on the right side of the window, click on Edit Choices and you will see a tick box for “Show Values”. I set this as 1, 2,3 etc. Save form. And lastly, this is how my confirmation settings look: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/gravityforms1/original/2X/2/27930c70ce70a3ddb79b1e36a2d0fd0ef586ad38.png) ---

The above method is working well, however, I am noticing that there are gaps in the spacing where an unchecked item is. For instance, when selecting options 1, 2, 4, & 5 , the confirmation appears like this for example: Thank you for your response! Here are your download links: Option 1 Option 2 Option 4 Option 5 See how it “skips” over the unchecked item leaving a gap? How can I fix this? ---

See the reply I just added here: > [@Exclude Notification Field if they a not used](https://community.gravityforms.com/t/exclude-notification-field-if-they-a-not-used/15564/4): > > You can check the box “Disable auto-formatting” and the line breaks will not be converted to HTML br and p tags. Then you have to add all your own HTML markup, because WordPress won’t do any of it. You may have to experiment a bit to ensure you have the line breaks where you want them still. ---
