Appendable Multiselect field

Question

Hi,

I need a multiselect field, where users can add new entries, either by a button or just typing. New entries should be part of choice list next time.

Smart Multi-Select does a good job, but doesn't allow new values to be entered.

Switching forms for adding choices in a separate form is too inconvenient.

Is there a field type that can perform updateable multi-select?

Hi

Thanks for clarifying, will add an appropriate tag for clarity

So, to your question - we dont have something like this to be enabled via parameter or anything like that, but this can be easily built / configured

Also, we have some user macro that simplifies this (but probably needs some tweaking when used with smart fields)

Hi

Welcome to community

Is this a question related to ConfiForms plugin? Looking at the field type name you have mentioned - it sounds like it is... but could you confirm?
