https://toolset.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/1329595-toolset_lc_38738.png

Where and how do you setup that form and that select dropdown? With Elementor?

Please point out the URLs, thanks

Can this information be made private

Page
hidden link

Calls
Toolset view
view-cs-hello-login4

calls
Toolset view
bmk list of all Carers for Seeker1

which uses the elementor template
bmk-temp-list1 - id= 5106

hidden link

#1331067

The view you mentioned above: bmk list of all Carers for Seeker1:
hidden link

It is querying posts of post type "cBookmarks Intermediary Posts"

In the elementor template "bmk-temp-list1" id: 5106:
hidden link
under text: Request for interview
there is a shortcode:
[elementor-template id="5333"]

Edit above elementor template:
hidden link
I see two Toolset fields:
"First Name1" and "Last Name1"

Are you going to output above two fields value as the dropdown options?
Where and how do you setup above two fields? in which post type? is there any relationship between this post type and "cBookmarks Intermediary Posts"?

#1331919

The shortcode: id="5333" is being over written by the dymanic toolset selection.

I have removed shortcode from the custom area.

In the accordion the request interview there are two source type that can be selected.

Either : Custom or Elementor template

I have used the elementor template - "cs-request-interview3" ([elementor-template id="5279"])
which calls the elementor form.
Within the form it has a form select field(item 9) which I am trying to populate with

cpt "csh-proposals-to-hire" (field first name 1) for the current logged in user

The relationship : the logged in user is the Parent "cBookmarks Intermediary Posts"

#1331969

I am not familiar with Elementor plugin,

Please edit the elementor template here:
hidden link

If I am right, the "Item #9" is the problem select field you mentioned above, are you going to display all "csh-proposals-to-hire" (field first name 1) as the options of that select field? for example:
- June
- Peter
- wwwwHenry333

Please confirm it, thanks

Or you just need to display related one "csh-proposals-to-hire" (field first name 1) option in that select field?
for example:
- Peter

#1332521

Yes - display all "csh-proposals-to-hire" (field first name 1) as the options of that select field? for example:
- June
- Peter
- wwwwHenry333

#1333113

Thanks for the details, I don't think it is possible with Toolset & Elementor integration, in your case, it needs to create a post view:
- Query "csh-proposals-to-hire" posts
- Display "first name 1" field

But it is possible with Toolset Forms plugin, see our document:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/cred-shortcodes/#cred_generic_field
The shortcode [cred_generic_field] supports: Inside shortcode body the necessary options and default values are defined as JSON string

See similar thread:
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/how-to-build-a-view-that-populate-a-cred-generic-field-select/

But it will need to create another Toolset post form and a post view, if you need assistance to use Toolst form to replace that Elementor form, please elaborate below detils:
In Elementor template:
hidden link

There is a form "New Form", is this form for creating posts? which post of post type will this form create?

Thanks
