 * I do not see a method for defaulting a checkbox to clicked (e.g., you want them
   to, by default, subscribe and thus the box is clicked).
 * How can this be accomplished?

 * Hi [@cynicalwebsite](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cynicalwebsite/),
 * In the form builder, simply click on your checkbox field to see its **Field Options**
   and then click on your chosen checkbox to select it.
 * When a checkbox is selected in the field options, it becomes selected in the 
   form by default.
 * Hope that helps!
