Hi everyone
I have a question regarding the display of selected items in a multi drop down menu. The bottom line is this: I have a collection of hobbies that the user chooses for himself to designate them in his profile. But the problem is that I do not understand how to make them appear in the profile, since the system, using magic text, offers to “display” all hobbies numerically, that is, 3 or 4 for example. Is there any option to display hobbies in words so that it is readable? Thanks in advance!
Hi @paulman,
You mean you want to display the selected hobbies from the dropdown or something else?
Thank you
I’m not sure exactly what you mean, but I think you are looking for the dropdown to populate with a users ‘Hobbies’. The multi dropdown does not allow that. Once they are set the first time, on returning to the screen they will all appear empty, even though some ‘Hobbies’ are already chosen by the user.
Solution is to forget the multi drop down and build a custom list with a toggle.
What I mean is this: the user has selected, for example, several hobbies from the drop-down list, they are stored in the database in the collection of hobbies associated with the user profile. And now it is necessary that everything that he has chosen is displayed after on his personal page in the form of text. That is, we go to his page in the application and see all the hobbies that he has chosen using the drop-down menu.
Then you need a list of Hobbies. Filtered to User > Hobbies
