Hi! I set up a checkbox-based field, way back when, and now my client reports that it’s malfunctioning. Turns out (upon taking a closer look) that no matter how many checkboxes you select, it will only save the last one; the others are unchecked after saving the post. This is a field dealing with days of the week, with 7 checkboxes in total, M, Tu, W, etc. If you check M, Tu, and W – for example – after you hit Save, only W is checked.

Before I made changes though, the post was retaining its previous settings – all checkboxes were checked. But once I start to make changes, I can’t select multiple checkboxes.

Here’s the code I used to create it:

piklist('field', array(
'type' => 'checkbox',
'field' => 'open_days',
'label' => 'Open Days',
'attributes' => array(
  'class' => 'text'
),
'choices' => array(
  'M' => 'M',
  'Tu' => 'Tu',
  'W' => 'W',
  'Th' => 'Th',
  'F' => 'F',
  'Sa' => 'Sa',
  'Su' => 'Su'
)
));

And I’ve attached screen grabs of the Dashboard view plus the database, with notes. There were multiple iterations of my metabox called “open_days”, with separate ones for each of the seven days (“open_days_1″, open_days_2”, etc.)

Did something change in an update to Piklist in terms of how to code these? Or did I just mess up somehow?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
