Dropdown Fields

Dropdown fields give you a dropdown input.

Settings #

Dropdown fields have the following settings:

• Dropdown Options – Define the options that will be available in the field. You even get to set the option values and labels separately, and choose which one should be selected by default.

The Field #

Dropdown fields will show a dropdown input with each of the Dropdown Options as defined in the field settings:

Templating #

You can output the selected option’s value like so:

{{ entry.dropdownFieldHandle }}

You can output the selected option’s label like so:

{{ entry.dropdownFieldHandle.label }}

Or you can loop through all of the available options rather than just the selected one:

<ul>
    {% for option in entry.dropdownFieldHandle.options %}
        <li>{{ option }}</li>
    {% endfor %}
</ul>

You can output an option’s label by typing {{ option.label }} instead, and you can tell if the option is selected or not via option.selected.

If you’re not directly outputting the value of the field, like assigning it to a variable for example, you will need to use dropdownFieldHandle.value, like so:

{% set dropdownValue = entry.dropdownFieldHandle.value %}
