Configure

You have multiple avenues to create the options for your Datalist fields. Most, follow how other ExpressionEngine option based fields operate so it should be straightforward.

Value/Label Pairs

Value/Label pairs can be used to make content selection friendlier to content authors. For example, if you need to store a value of 1, you could use a label of One.

Populate Manually

Each item in the textarea will be included in a datailst drop down menu in the publish form.

Populate from another channel field (within Channel Entries Only)

Select the Channel Field you want to use options from.

Would you like help configuring it for a specific project—for example, using it alongside Highlander to ensure unique suggestion choices, or in a filtered member directory using Member List?
