 * I have the following problem with contact form 7:
 * I´ve added checkboxes to let people choose if they want a callback or not.
 * But I am not getting anything from the checkboxes when they are chosen.
 * My code:
 * <p>Ihr Name(Pflichtangabe)
    [text* your-name] </p>
 * <p>Ihre Email-Adresse (Pflichtangabe)
    [email* your-email] </p>
 * <p>Betreff
    [text your-subject] </p>
 * <p>Nachricht
    [textarea your-message] </p>
 * <p>[checkbox checkbox-545 id:choice “Rückruf” “Kein Rückruf”]</p>
 * <p[text text-69]</p>
 * <p>[submit “Senden”]</p>

 * Oh and it seems a problem when I add customfields:
 * <p>Ihr Name(Pflichtangabe)
    [text* your-name] </p>
 * <p>Ihre Email-Adresse (Pflichtangabe)
    [email* your-email] </p>
 * <p>Betreff
    [text your-subject] </p>
 * <p>Nachricht
    [textarea your-message] </p>
 * <p>[checkbox checkbox-545 id:choice “Rückruf” “Kein Rückruf”]</p>
 * <p>Telefonnummer:
   [text text-69]</p>
 * <p>[submit “Senden”]</p>
 * Can´t get the telefonummer field information either over email

 * Well, it seems you’re not inserting the same tags in you message design section.
   
   In the message design section of your form (the frame other than you form design
   frame) insert these in separate lines (You can also use HTML if you need to modify
   the look of your received messages):
 *     ```
       [checkbox-545]
       [text-69]
       ```
   
 * You can also insert a label before the tags:
 *     ```
       Do you want us to contact you? [checkbox-545]
       Tel: [text-69]
       ```

 * [@riddle81](https://wordpress.org/support/users/riddle81/) WordPress Admin ->
   Contact -> Choose Contact Form -> Top section is form design, Mail section is
   right below that.
