What’s the best alternative to the Multi Dropdown element plugin? It works good enough for selecting… but deselecting (especially several items) from a phone is terrible. Anyone else use something a little cleaner? ---

You can actually just make it from scratch in Bubble fairly easily with a repeating group and buttons inside the cell. Then you can make the style you like and big buttons for mobile users. ---

When trying to deselect from the input area… the little “X” is too small and often times it thinks I want more dropdown options instead of removing current option. When trying to deselect from the dropdown area… it tries to zoom in/out and closes the window after each deselection. \*Some of the issues may be due to IOS… but minor UI annoyances still. What are the other plugins you are referencing? ---

Let me know if you need help making it from scratch, it’s pretty straightforward. Do you want it to make changes on the fly when picking something? Or after you’re done picking everything you press a button to “save” it? ---

If you search dropdown in Editor/plugin section, you will find different option. I have created the Selectize one but maybe there’s other option that can fit. ---
