Create the source form (‘Form A’)

Create your first form (Form A) and add a radio or checkbox field to it. Activate Image Choices on the field and add your images as normal. Note you can also use an existing form here that already has image choices entries saved.

Fill out the form a few times with different images and descriptions to create entries that can be used for populating the Image Choices field.

Make sure your Image Choice field has the image and label notification setting enabled so we show the Image Choice selection in entries.

Create the display form (‘Form B’)

Now, create or choose your display form. This is the form that will display Image Choices entries from form A. Like previously, add a radio or checkbox field to your form, and enable Image Choices.
