We need the possibility to hide some options of drop down fields when using this field in forms.

Sometimes only 2 of 5 options are relevant for a case but we don’t want to create an additional field with only two values and map it to the existing field. It would be much easier to hide some options that shouldn’t be shown in the \*\*bleep\*\* form.

Hi @Cornelia

You can manually remove options from dropdowns in the form settings on the page in question.

More info here: [How do I modify which options are available for my form field?](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/articles/kcs_article/forms/how-do-i-modify-what-options-are-available-for-my-form-field)

Hope this helps.

Hey all,

Thanks for this response. I am also looking to do something like this.

Though we are on the Marketing Starter Hub only. And would like to use it for either Hubspot or Non-Hubspot forms? Eg 2 Forms use the same property BUT 1 needs to have a set number of options and the other needs a different set in a dropdown (or checkboxes).

Is that possible? If not, please advise if this can be done in any other way?

Thank you
