Preselect radio button on page load

Hello. I’m very green to webflow so please bear with me. This topic has been raised prior (Radio buttons pre-selected) and answered by @GrahamLinter, thank you… but… I’m still confused how to implement this solution

  • I have a form on my page, and in it I have several groups of radio buttons.
  • Each group has it’s own “Group Name” and each radio btn in each group has it’s own “Choice Value”. i.e. Group Name is unique on the page
  • For the radio group in question I followed Graham’s advice - In the “Custom Attributes” panel underneath Radio Button Settings, I added a custom attribute to the radio button I want preselected onload. I added the attribute with the Attribute Name = checked, and the Attribute Value = true.
  • I publish the page.
  • When viewed in the published webflow website the preselected radio button (above) is not showing the selected checked state onload.

Any help would be very much appreciated! My thanks

Same here. The previous solutions doesn’t seem to work any longer.

Edit: this sounds like a confirmation that this is a bug - Feedback: Customize form checkboxes and radio buttons - #7 by brjohnson

I figured it out. It was very hard for me to dig up so here’s the link to the solution:
