Hi,

My dropdown select allowed for multiple choices, as of today it no longer does. Is there any reason as to why this is happening. Also I don’t want a multi-checkbox as it will ruin how my forms look.

I’m not sure as to what changed over the weekend. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

John

Hey @JBird01 dropdown selects in HubSpot never allowed multiple choices.

Either someone within your HubSpot portal changed the property type from a dropdown select to a multiple checkbox, or you were using a multiple checkbox property with a custom frontend on your forms.

Hi Tom,

I made the forms and properties, initially it was multi select then moved to dropdown and it was working with multi select.

Thanks,  
John

Hi @JBird01 ,

- A **“Dropdown select”** property type is designed to allow only **one option** to be selected.

- If you want users to pick **multiple choices** , the supported property type is **“Multiple checkboxes”** (or the “multiple-select” variant) — not a standard dropdown.
