Formatting answer options (checkboxes, multiple choice)

Checkbox options currently can only be plain text and cannot have formatting. Bold, italic, underline, links and such cannot be set.

Hi there, I wonder if there is any update on this?

Feb 9, 2026

There must be a way to insert a link inside any para/text . I see screen shots of this - but, no REAL explanation on how it's done. We've been trying but no success.

Great feature request and much need - for example the ability to hyperlink (and the ability to specify open in new tab) - "I consent to the processing of my data in accordance with your *Privacy Policy*"

Hi. Any update with this? We, as a company, would like to use Pro, however this is blocker to us, as we are using it with our clients which needs to accept terms&conditions in a checkbox field. For us, it is no way to use text block below the checkbox for legal purposes.

PeliForms: I'm sorry to inform you that this feature is currently not prioritized for development, while we will definitely develop is sometime, I can't make any promises on when this will happen.

this answer is one year old and it cants be that hard to add the functions from the text also to a checkbox text.

Agree.

Hi Leo FITOUSSI, thanks for this request!While this is not natively possible in Tally (yet), a workaround can be to create an image yourself, which you upload as a multiple choice option. You can read more about this feature here: https://tally.so/help/multiple-choice#6e5fbf74d2b549ec9a2719…

Hi Frederik Simoen, amazing ! Thanks for sharing this tips, that's exactly what I needed :)

Would love to at least be able to bold. Everything else is gravy :)

Hi Asoc. de personas con movilidad reducida , I see. Yes, at this moment, it's not possible to add links to checkboxes. I'll merge this with the correct feature request as this is something we want to support in the future. In the meantime, this is an example of a workaround that might work for you: https://tally.so/templates/gdpr-compliant-contact-form/M3NrO…

What kind of bad workaround is this? How hard can it be to just add the text functions also into the checkbox text. We need a link in the checkbox and not write the text 2x. In Online Times of Conversion Optimization this is bad.. I thought tally is made and hosted in the EU and then this is the answer to be GDPR compliant?

Hello Filip, Thanks for your answer and your product. I'm in testing now but we wish to convert our profile in PRO. My purpose is create how in the picture: Where who fill the form, can click on "terms & Conditions" and read terms in a external page. Is it possible in Tally?

Jul 26, 2024

Hi Asoc. de personas con movilidad reducida , adding links should work on text and heading blocks. If that's not the case for you, could you contact us via our support form so we can investigate? https://tally.so/support 🙏

IMO this has a huge effect on UX via speed via lack of 'skim-' or scan-ability' impact in some cases. I want to be able to bold the short version of an option, and have regular text for the expanded nuance, when needed.

Hi Ruben Baston, it's not possible yet to add links in answer options, but you could use a text block underneath and add the URL in there. Hope this helps for now!
