Conditional Logic based on two fields
Hello, everyone,
I'm struggling a little with conditional logic.
Once I include a second field in the logic, hiding/displaying doesn't work anymore.
I'll try to describe my form:
2 dropdown fields with different values.
These are alternately displayed using a radio box selection.
A second radio box should be displayed or not according to the values selected in the dropdown fields.
As long as I include only one of the dropdown fields in the logic it works perfectly as soon as the second one is included.
Have anyone a Idea to solve this?
Many Thanks!

Help me understand the beginning. The form starts with two radio options? When one radio option is selected, one of the two drop downs is displayed?

The first Radio Button Controls the Visibility of the two Dropdown Fields.
To that point everything works perfectly.
Now i wanna show/hide a second Radio Button depending on the Values from both Dropdown Fields.
And this works only when i select only one of the Dropdowns in the Conditional Settings...
Hope it´s clear enough now ;-)
Many Thanks!

Andreas,
Another clarification I need is in your original post, you indicate that you have two drop down fields shown as checkboxes. That is a bit confusing because those are two completely different types of fields. Are the checkbox fields a lookup or dynamic field that pulls the results of another form and displays those in checkboxes?
And finally, what are the possibilities of options selected and which "drop down" do they come from, that will show the second radio field?

Hi Bobby!
First, thanks for your efforts! :-)
I resolved the issue by myself in the meantime, but the situation is very strange for me.
We have "WP Fastest Cache" running, in general we exclude the pages which have a Formidable Form because of some earlier issues. So i had also excluded the form where we are talking about from WPFC.
Now i saw that in the Dev Environment the form was working very well and the only difference between Prod and Dev was the missing cache exclusion.
So i removed the Page from WPFC Exclusion List in Prod and it´s working!
But i have absolutely no idea why.
Normally as i know, issues can come up with enabling caching...but fix an issue?!
I´ll try to do some investigation further.

Caching a page captures and saves all existing scripts so that pages load faster. If at any point in time you had changed the field settings for visibility, it likely retained the previous version of that script on the front end via caching. So then when you cleared it or disabled it and it finally had a chance to update to the current scripts. That is the likely scenario.
