Hi there,

I have a CheckboxSetField that is populated with an array. The first item in the array is checked by default, but i dont want any items checked by default. Code looks like this:

public function LeakForm() {
$areas = array('Exterior','Water Meter (Moving)','Water Meter (Not Moving)','Roof Space','Family Bathroom','En-Suite
$form = Form::create(
$this,
"LeakForm",
FieldList::create(
CheckboxSetField::create("AreasTested", "Area Tested", $areas)
->defaultValue('No')
)........

Which version of SilverStripe are you using? You should be able to do this in 3.1 with ->setDefaultItems(array()); or perhaps ->setValue(false); - http://api.silverstripe.org/3.1/class-CheckboxSetField.html

try CheckboxSetField::create("AreasTested", "Area Tested", $areas)->setValue('No')

Ok figured it out... the array had to have a key as well so it should look like this:
$areas = array(
'Exterior'=>'Exterior',
'Water Meter (Moving)'=>'Water Meter (Moving)',
'Water Meter (Not Moving)'=>'Water Meter (Not Moving)',
'Roof Space'=>'Roof Space',
'Family Bathroom'=>'Family Bathroom',
'En-Suite Bathroom'=>'En-Suite Bathroom',
'Kitchen'=>'Kitchen',
'Passage'=>'Passage',
'Bedroom'=>'Bedroom'
);

And then you can set the fieldlist (like thomas suggested) like this:

CheckboxSetField::create("AreasTested", "Area Tested", $areas)->setValue('0'),
