Solspace Freeform Pro change default values of checkboxes from "y,n" to "Yes,No"?

Question

I'm trying to get these checkbox fields to match outputs with some other fields I have that have "Yes" and "No" outputs. Any way to change these? Thanks!

Here's some more details... I have a large multipage form that users fill out and submit. After submission it takes the user to a page with a summary of all the information provided in the form. I have some Checkbox fields on the form as well as some Radio buttons. The Radio buttons I can give a value. I have given values of "Yes" and "No". The checkboxes have built-in values of "y,n". I would like to be consistent with the values displayed, and would like the "y,n" values of the checkboxes to be "Yes, No" instead. Thanks for your help!

Here's some template code...

This is a checkbox...

                {freeform:field:email_invoice} Email invoice instead of sending via USPS?<br />
                {if freeform:error:email_invoice}
                    <span class="error">{freeform:error:email_invoice}. Please type "NA" if not applicable.</span>
                {/if}

This is a radio button...

                {freeform:field:controlled_substance wrapper_open="" wrapper_close="" row_wrapper_open="" row_wrapper_close="<br />" label_wrapper_open="" label_wrapper_close="" }
                {if freeform:error:controlled_substance}
                    <span class="error">{freeform:error:controlled_substance}</span>
                {/if}

When displaying it after submission I'm using this code...

checkbox...

                <tr><td>    
                Email invoice?: </td><td><strong>{freeform:field:email_invoice}</strong> 
                </td></tr>

radio button...

                <tr><td class="first">  
                Controlled substance?: </td><td><strong>{freeform:field:controlled_substance}</strong>
                </td></tr>

Well, it's possible you could just modify this file:

/third-party/freeform/default_fields/freeform_ft.checkbox.php

But that seems like a bad decision, and it wouldn't retroactively fix any already-stored form submissions.

I don't know what state you're at in development, but regardless, a simple fix for this is a dual comparison.

{if field_1 == "y" && field_2 == "Yes"}

    // fields are both set to yet

{if:elseif field_1 == "n" && field_2 =="No"}

    // fields are both set to no

{if:else}

    // our fields don't match value intent

{/if}

I assume by match you mean equality comparison in value intent ('y','Y','yes','YES', etc whatever value with the same intent as "yes"). If you could expand on what you're trying to do, I can better help you.
