Custom Drop Down

Plugins
#1

Hi there,

I have just purchased the Custom Dropdown plugin and I am unable to use it.

I am using it to provide a selection of values that I want to filter a RG by but the Dropdown Element is not available to me when I try to create the filter in the search for.

Am, I missing something?

Thanks

Frank

Hi @fstillone,

Thanks for reaching out. Yes, the plugin will not appear in the Do a search for method. The right way of doing it, is simply displaying the data in your RepeatingGroup when the Custom Dropdown value is changed.

The plugin offers you an event:

So you can set the condition when a certain option is selected from the dropdown, it will Display list in RepeatingGroup with a certain filter.

E.g. you have two options in your dropdown: ASC and DESC.

When the value of dropdown changes and the selected option is the first item (ASC), you display data in your RG based on a filter with ascending order. Respectively, if the second item is selected (DESC), you display data based on a filter with descending order.

Hope it helps.

Best,
Alex
