Thanks for the code snippet. Any chance of getting this updated to also handle checkbox fields? I see it handles multi-value inputs, but checkboxes have choices and inputs...

Found a workaround for my particular use of checkboxes, but am having another issue. If I want to dynamically populate form fields NOT from another form, this snippet seems to disable any other pre-population when $entry_id is not in the querystring and it returns $form. Is there a simple way to have the basic dynamic population from the querystring function when $entry_id is NOT being passed in? I have a field with dynamic population enabled via parameter 'tour' and if I try to simply load the form with ?tour=value the value is no longer received by the form and populated.
