You've mentioned upcoming Joomla forms but I have a very simple use case, and I'm wondering if there's anyway I could get this to work today.
Is there any way to embed a CB custom field into an article that offered
1) a form for multi-select checkboxes (like in profile edit), and then submits the choices, or
2) just show the choices already selected.
What I'm trying to achieve is to let a group's members select which of 4 dates they prefer for an event.
There needs to be somewhere to save that data. The easiest way to do that is a form builder extension (something we're also planning as a future product!). If you're meaning you want them to edit a profile field within an article then that's certainly doable using CB Core Fields Ajax and a substitution.

Thanks for that. I hadn't tried the Ajax before but I got an editable checkbox field working fine from with JEvents. It was a little tricky because of the multi-value field.
