When someone changes there subscription preferences they automatically get an email. Every option is working correctly except for the first one $subscription0 which is being used for COVID-19. When the corresponding COVID checkbox is checked and the subscription preferences are saved it never shows in the email. I can't figure out why it's only this particular one that isn't working, while the other options show correctly in an email based on whether it is checked or not checked in the form. Any ideas why this is happening?

No particular reason that wouldn't work, if the lead field's Velocity name is actually cOVID19 (case-sensitive) and you have it checked off in the tree on the right-hand-side of Script Editor.

 

But I find this kind of code really prone to error due to typos — it doesn't follow the DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) principle.  You should try to use a collection-centric design, like so:

#set( $subscriptionFriendlyMap = { "cOVID19" : "COVID-19 Bi-Weekly Newsletter", "Alcoholic_Drinks__c" : "Alcoholic Drinks", "Apparel__c" : "Apparel", "Automotive__c" : "Automotive" } ) #foreach( $subscription in $subscriptionFriendlyMap.entrySet() ) #if( $lead[$subscription.getKey()].equals("1") ) <li>$subscription.getValue()</li> #end #end
