The current parent field in CRED is a select dropdown, automatically populated with all posts ( for that post-type).
This is fine when there are not many posts. If there are 100+, it is not an optimal UX solution.
I would like to add an option when adding parent fields to a CRED form.
The current solution or a "Search as you type field".
Like in backend, (or not showing any post suggestions until you start typing)
