I would like to create a dropdown field with the option for multiple selections. Currently, that is not an option in Hubspot. Anyone else feel like that would help their form length and conversion capture?! ---

Hi, @jstraszheim. When you create a new property, select the multiple checkboxes option. This will allow you to select as many values as you like, and has the [same 1,000-option limit](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/articles/kcs_article/contacts/is-there-a-limit-to-the-number-of-property-options-i-can-have-in-an-enumeration-property) that single picklists do. ![Screen Shot 2018-06-12 at 9.54.15 AM.png](https://d2qpr2jzcazej7.cloudfront.net/original/3X/2/c/2ccd89b28a08882b83532bfb3e28a0524de68fdd.png) ---

Thank you. However, I would love a dropdown menu with this ability as well, because the more options you add (like countries or products), the longer the form gets. This can be a deterent for people to complete our form. yikes! ---

That option doesn’t exist natively - [@Phil\_Vallender](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/74) weighed in on this topic before [here](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/Contacts-Companies-Deals/Can-I-select-multiple-properties-from-a-dropdown-list/m-p/14928/highlight/true#M1058). You’d have to design your own custom dropdown to accomplish something like this. ---

Although this is very late, if you are worried about the multi select checkbox values being listed out in forms, you can use scripts to create a dropdown from the multi select. You’ll first need your form to be on a landing page or any page you can insert a script on, like one on your website that you have backend access to. Then you’ll need to make a script that does the following: 1. Identify the Hubspot multi-select property on the page. 2. Create a multi-select dropdown element right next to the Hubspot multi-select checkboxes. 3. Pull the values listed in each option of the multi-select checkboxes and re-create them in the multi-select dropdown that the script made. 4. Create an On-Click function that will automatically sync any selections from your multi-select dropdown to the multi-select checkboxes. - EX: If i select 2 options in the multi-select dropdown, the same 2 options will be selected in the Hubspot multi-select checkboxes property. 5. Once you confirm that the 2 multi-selects are synced on the page, you can have the script set a css styling of display:none on the original Hubspot multi-select chekboxes from the page. Now you’ll have a custom multi-select dropdown on landing pages or web pages with a multi-select checkbox hubspot property in forms! If you have any questions on this process, please feel free to ask. ---
