Hello Edouard,

We are sorry but it is not possible to do so.

This is one of the most basic features that is missing in Easy Social. I need to create a dropdown with 10's of thousands of items and I cant do it dynamically in ES. It is almost impossible to do it manually. This is one of the reasons, I may have to switch Easy Social to a different Social Networking platform, unless I can find a workaround or alternate method

Hi Neelam,

We're very sorry. This feature is not available yet in EasySocial. I understand your frustration about this issue. Perhaps you can voice this out in stackideas.com/voices/easysocial so that our developers can have a better look at this request, and hopefully we can have this feature in the future.

I am sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Hi guys when can we expect some extra functionality to the Dropdown List, is there anyway i can add values not one by one, considering a need to add a couple of thousand values for users to choose during the registration process....it makes it truly impossible....2- Is there a way to edit the dropdown menu custom field, where is it located in the filesystem like .php file? thank you

Hi alexander,

We're sorry as we do not have settings for your requirement.
However, you may try to apply changes at
joomlafolder\administrator\components\com_easysocial\themes\default\profiles\form.fields.config.choices.item.php
Can you update us about your changes that will apply towards the requirement?

HI Ethan so what i did was:
I created a custom field "multidropdown list" in the profile to choose during the registration for my users
the values of the multidropdown list were 1111 2222 and 3333, i saved the page
Then i "expect the element" in google chrome and copied the code of the whole "multidropdown list"
then i change these
<option value="1111">1111</option>
<option value="2222">2222</option>
<option value="3333">3333</option>
With the values i wanted, so my questions are:
1- Can you check please the i copied the code correctly of the "multidropdown list" and I inserted my new values right
and
2- Where do i put this code after? I checked \form.fields.config.choices.item.php but it doesn't seem to be the file where to code for the multidropdown menu is.
Please see my attachement
ps:
Thank you for the wonderful support

Hello Alexander,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply.

The dropdown value is actually stored inside the database table called #__social_fields_options where #_ is your table prefix. Thus it is not possible to copy the value in .csv file or .php file considering the value is get directly from the database.

Hi,
can you please tell me where this file is located first..."__social_fields_options" Do you mean MySQL database?
I'm sorry but i just don't get why i can't replace the values...as we get the source code and the the database , i believe, is located locally on my server?

Hello Alexander,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply.

The data is located inside your server mysql database and it is not in the form of file. You can try to access your server database by using phpmyadmin and search for the table #__social_fields_options.
