I would like to know if your product now has the option of a multi select search field in a drop down menu form much like the image that I've attached to this support ticket. I don't want my clients to hit the control button to do this or leave instructions for them to do so on the page or in the field for this does not look professional. I want something that's obvious like in the image that I've added to this request. I looked at your other support tickets regarding this and what I've seen so far is that they are more than two years old and I'm hoping this is something your developers have added at this point. I have looked at other options like FacetWP and before I buy that and find another option to create custom post types, I thought I'd make an inquiry to see if I could just use your product.

Regards,

Ronald

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - you can add a filter which is a normal dropdown select filter which allow you to select multiple options but there is no such feature available as per the screenshot where select is displayed with options using checkboxes.

You can submit the feature request using the following form for assessment and concern person will review that:

Hello Minesh,

Is it obvious that this is s multi select or does it look much like a drop down menu that has only one option? Also, does it require someone to hold down the control button on their keyboard to make multiple selections?

=> Yes - thats correct.

The multiselect dropdown will be something like this:
=> hidden link
