The idea is to have a Multiple Select Drop-down, which can enable a form visitor to select multiple options for a property by clicking on a dropdown and searching for an option. This would essentially be an altrenative for Multiple Checkbox Field Type, for when there's too many options in the property.
I've recently faced this issue, where I have a Contact Property field with about 250 different options, with the ability to have multiple options associated to the property. I need to insert this Property into one of my forms, and I find that having this property as a Multiple Checkbox means that the form becomes extraordinarily long, and I have to make the user scroll through each and every option to find the ones relevant to them, along with scrolling through all the 250 options to get to the next form field. This makes for an incredibly bad user experience on the form, and I'm bound to have an insane bounce rate due to this. There seems to be no other usable alternative as of now. I'm using a multi-select dropdown in my Jotforms at the moment. As much as I'd love to move all my forms to Hubspot, the lack of this field type makes it quite difficult for me.
Yes I too am looking for this functionality. Both to have a longer list without taking up so much space and make the form look so long, and to have different types of looks on the form. I am trying to avoid having two multi select forms on the same form
This idea would be very helpful for us. In our use case, we have 1500 schools that we want to include in a field. Users would choose their school in a form. Obviously scrolling through that many options is not a good experience, but a text entry field is not good for us to segment users either. If we can provide a search feature then users can find their school quickly and if it isn't in the list then I'd love for them to be able to type whatever value they want.
What's funny about this is that Hubspot has this feature in SEVERAL places throughout the platform, but it is not made available for use. I had to pay a developer some decent money to make this happen with one of our properties.
This ability to have a searchable form field for all multiple checkbox and drop down values would be a huge help to mutliple customers who have larger lista for a single form field // property.
