Countries in dropdown predefined choices.

• DMUAdmin February 10 Permalink

  Currently when you make a dropdown there is predefined choices to insert states or continents but not countries. Could that be added?

  I think the reason we don't have a list of all countries is that it would be too long for some browsers to add in via javascript. Not totally sure on that.
  
  However, you can do it with a text list like this one:

  Using the "import predefined" option:

  Each choice counts against your "Total Fields" count, correct? So if you have 200 choices that won't work. Am I understanding that correctly?

  For dropdown or radio fields, no. Those only count as one field, regardless of the number of options, because the user can only select one.
  
  For checkbox fields, you're correct. Since the user could select every option on a checkbox field, each option basically counts as a separate field. So you could not have a Checkbox field with 200 choices.
