[closer12]

Hi. I am new on processwire. 

I want to add checkbox fields to my page  edit and when if they are selected. I want to show the text in the front page.

It's in the page tree.

Selects and Checkboxes are infact pages (Fieldtype Page). 

For the page references, select the options page as parent. Look at the page tree below. 

options ( options template )
  |
  +-- option one ( option template )
  |
  +-- option two ( option template )
  |
  +-- option three ( option template )

It actually depends a bit whether you want a single checkbox, or an array of checkbox items to choose from. The former is simply a matter a creating a field of type checkbox. The latter is what Martijn is talking about and requires creating a pagefield.

Do you want to control the display of your pages with a checkbox? That means, if you assign the checkbox in a page, this page will be shown in the frontend?

Or do you want control specific elements (like body, title...) of your page?

my question is very simple.

I want to make a one checkbox and if this checkbox is checked i want to show some text in the page ...

But i couldnt find  where i can enter that text when i create a checkbox in the fields. and how to show in the template.  i need very simple example for understanding.

My checkbox name is :  check

İ added this to template : 

<?php echo $page->check; ?>

and when i checked its show :  1   

but how i can show a text ?

<?php

if ($page->check == 1) // 1 is checked, 0 is unchecked

echo "some text";

echo $page->sometextfield;

?>
