I'm looking to set up a category "location" with sub-categories --&gt; Europe --&gt; UK --&gt; London and many other countries, continents, cities. Ideally I just want to choose "location" in the form editor as a category and GF will then automatically include all the other sub-categories. Ideally then the subcategories are indented for better viewing! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/post-category-field-as-multiple-choice-radio-buttons#post-32672 Tue, 16 Aug 2011 14:30:29 +0000 Carl Hancock 32672@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Currently the items are displays alphabetically. It's not possible to re-order them because the drop down is populated dynamically with the category items when the form is displayed. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/post-category-field-as-multiple-choice-radio-buttons#post-32656 Tue, 16 Aug 2011 13:32:20 +0000 charger15 32656@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks for the quick reply. Follow up question: Is it possible to change the order of the items in the dropdown list? I saw in an older post that it's not possible. Did you add that feature in the meantime?</p> <p>Thanks! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/post-category-field-as-multiple-choice-radio-buttons#post-32577 Mon, 15 Aug 2011 16:38:38 +0000 Carl Hancock 32577@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Currently the Post Category is only supported as a drop down there isn't a multiple choice option. It's a feature we do plan on adding in the future but there have been features that were a higher priority which is why it hasn't been added yet.</p> <p>It is possible to implement as a customization, but you'd have to use a checkbox field and then know how to write the custom code to set the post category when the form is submitted. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/post-category-field-as-multiple-choice-radio-buttons#post-32537 Mon, 15 Aug 2011 13:57:22 +0000 charger15 32537@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello!</p> <p>Is it possible to display the post category field as multiple choice instead of a drop down? And how can I change in which order the categories get listed?</p> <p>I guess this is possible with <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_field_content" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_field_content</a> but the example on that site is too complicated for me to understand.</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
