Multi Dropdown Lists in 1 Question was created by dragonmac1
So I have a Survey that Requires 1 Answer to 1 question. There are over 200 possible(Cities) answers so One drop-down list is not nice. Divided by 5 Subcategories(County) the drop-down menu is more manageable. I think I have an idea but would like suggestion.
Can I have 5 dropdown attached to one question?

Hi,

I think I have an idea

Would have been nice if you'd shared it.

Can I have 5 dropdown attached to one question?

Of course. Why not.
The easiest way is to have your 5 city drop-downs, each with relevance equation like
"county==1"
"county==2"
...

Another useful option is the autocomplete option.


Here you can either use the plugin or the version explained in the manual.

And I nearly forgot the "select2package" plugin.
In my opinion the best choice for your needs.

Maybe Denis can point to another repository.

Hi, Tony,
I didn't find it on your github "overview" page, but now in "repositories".
