"Dropdown" for field creation

Post by gerner » Sat Nov 02, 2024 12:49 pm

Hi

Anybody that know plugin for "Fields" in articles. Means when I go to Articles: New Field and what to create a field there are some predefined types like:
Text
Calender
Checkbox
Colour
Editor
... etc...

But I need some more - mainly a dropdown I can customize, like where all countries in Europe is placed, I can place the countries myself, its the dropdown option I need.

Are there any plugin or module that can help with that? I have tried search the extensions, but not able to find any.

Hope someone can advice :)

Use List field, if you want to add country options yourself.

It is not clear whether you need a list field, sql field or subform. Some documentation:

Maybe you could clarify what you want to enter in the article and what you want to see in the output.
