However this Taxonomy happens to be HUGE -- it has about 150 entries... AND it's hierarchical. </p> <p>When I set this up as a "Checkbox" type field and populate it from the taxonomy, it spits out a giant single list of all the terms. I can clean up some of the layout issues obviously, but I'd like to perhaps find a better solution that this overall.</p> <p>First off I want to hide the parent terms altogether, just the 2nd layer of terms are important.</p> <p>Secondly, while I could clean up the formatting a bit for the giant list of check-boxes, I'd rather have something where my users could perhaps select 1 term, and then have a little + button that when pressed, would add another field of the same type that would allow them to enter a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th etc term from that taxonomy. </p> <p>I'm not exactly sure the best way to go about this however, any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! </p>
