I’m currently trying to show a dropdown list with the options from a checkbox field on a Channel in order for site users to perform a search of channels that have those options checked. The reason for this is I have separate mobile code, and a drown down is friendlier for mobile view.

Is this possible?

At the moment the code for it presented as a checkbox is:



Any help greatly appreciated. Hope this is the right area of the forum.

Just so I’m clear- do you have the actual form working using checkboxes? If so and it’s just a matter of switching from checkboxes to a multiselect, it’s simple. The most difficult part is getting the search working.

The form is working using checkboxes.

It exists here on the left: http://www.whalefree.com.au/

I am trying to replicate the same functionality for our mobile menu, but checkboxes doesn’t display well so I wanted to present it instead as a dropdown. That’s the part I am having an issue with - it’s probably relatively simple!
