I’m using the Multi Dropdown element to enter tags, but would like the user to be able to enter multi-word tags. For example, I’m tying artists to a song and would like the user to enter the artist’s full name, such as Elvis Presley. Right now I can only get the tags to be one word. When I go to add the space between the first and last name it creates a tag for just the first name.
The reasons that I’m trying to use Multi Dropdown is that sometimes a song can be two or more artists who collaborated.
Is there any way to change this? Should I be using a different input?
So you have tags which are single words … and you want to enter multiple words to build up a tag ? So “Elvis” and “Presley” gives “Elvis Presely” and “Elvis” and “Costello” gives “Elvis Costello” ?
Ok, so this is an example of the multidropdown, with a box to add in “new” items, and the new item gets added to the selection (which is probably the tricky bit) when you add it.
The multidropdown works as standard, but it has a default set to a custom state. The custom state is kept in line with the values in the multidropdown, but gets added to when a new Artist is added, and then you reset the group to reset the values to add the new value.
