Sekander Badsha Hello, I created form with two different categories as dropdown list(both of them are set as "Child of"). I can add new post using this form with no problem, but then I go to edit form and I can see just one category selected, column for another category is empty - says "- Select -". Sometimes is empty the first one, sometimes second one. If I check post in backend, I can see two categories set there as it should be. Could you please help me? thank you Michal

Hello Michal,
Using dropdown for multiple categories is not a good idea. You should use check boxes.
Or you can set a default category from the form settings and let the user choose another with dropdown.

Hi Sekander,
ok, I will use Multi Select, because dropdown menu would look a little bit “messy” as we have a lot of categories…
but I have another problem, dont know if I should open another thread… I can not change custom date field. When I create new post, it is fine, but when I want to edit it, it says that post has been edited, but date is not changed at all.
Could you please advise?
thank you, Michal

Yes. Do create a separate topic. We’ll discuss about this there; that will help other users to find with ease.
