 * Hey, I tried the forms for the first time today. Looks very good – only one thing
   currently not.
 * If I select E-Mail as the action and want to output all {fields} in the e-mail-
   body, then, for example, multiple selected checkboxes only show “Array” in the
   content.
 * Is there a setting I overlook?
 * Thanks a lot! 🙂

 * Hello,
 * I’m glad you enjoy the new ACF Extended Forms. You’re right, I have to properly
   map fields like checkboxes/radio for the {fields} tag. The next patch will fix
   this issue, I’ll let you know as soon as it’s up!
 * Thanks for the report,
 * Regards.

 * Hello jabbadu,
 * Just to let you know that the latest ACF Extended 0.8.3 Update fixed this issue
   🙂
 * You now also have access to specific hooks allowing you to choose how you want
   to display values. (By default, ACF Extended will separate array values with 
   comma “,”).
 *     ```
       add_filter('acfe/form/format_value/name=my_field', 'my_acfe_value', 10, 4);
       function my_acfe_value($value, $unformatted_value, $post_id, $field){
   
           // Access to $value, $unformatted_value, $post_id, $field
           return 'My value!';
   
       }
       ```
   
 * Have a nice day!
 * Regards.
