Hi

I have selected ‘Multi-Select’ as the filter type in the plugin configuration but I get a list of check boxes. I need a drop down that allows more than one selection using the CTRL key. I have read another post that just suggests what I have already done.

Hope someone can throw some light on this!

Best regards

Andy

I’ve just found a way round this. I edited the default template file for the module and changed the case for the ‘select’ option to this:

case 'select':
echo JHTML::_('select.genericlist', $extrafield->options , $extrafield->input_name, 'class="inputbox" multiple="multiple" size="5" ','value','text',$extrafield->default_value);
break;

This seems to have done the trick for me.

Best regards

Andy
