Hi,
I am creating a business directory. I have 4 Custom posts type
1. Products
2.Product Sector
3. Product Sub-Sector
4. Product Categories

Note that a product can be classified in to 3 levels;
level 1 -Product Sector
Level 2-Product Sub-Sector
Level 3-Product Categories

The relationships include the following.
1.Product sector can has one to many relationship with Sub-Sector
2.Product Sub-Sector has a one to many relationship with Product Categories
3.Product Sector has a one to many relationship with Products
4.Product Sub-Sector has a one to many relationship with Products
5.Product Categories has a one to many relationship with Products

I have created a form representing the products Custom Post Type.Products contains the relationships created in form of input fields namely;
1. Product Sector input field
2. Product Sub-Sector input field
3. Product Categories input field

I want the Product Form to have a cascading input field or your may call it conditional drop down. In the product form when I select A sector e.g Manufacturing, Then the Input field for sub-sector should restrict me to only the sub-sectors related to Manufacturing Sector. The same should apply to product category when a specific Product Sub Sector is selected.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

The thing is that you can filter your parent select dropdown select using the author field:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/forms/cred-shortcodes/#cred_field

author Optional. Use it with a parent selector field to specify that the list of parent posts should be limited to those authored by the mentioned user ID. The value $current can be used to define that the current user should only see their own parent posts in a dropdown.

There is no such feature available to display such dependent dropdown or nor I've any workaround to share. You are welcome to submit a feature request using the following form:
