Create cascading dropdown lists in forms using hierarchical taxonomies.
This add-on introduces a hierarchical select field for forms, allowing you to build cascading dropdown menus. It is designed for site builders and content managers who need to collect or organize data with a clear parent-child relationship, such as product specifications, location details, or job application criteria.
Hierarchical Select field: Insert a block to create a multi-level selection structure where each dropdown's options are determined by the choice made in the previous level.
Flexible data source: Pulls term values directly from your site's hierarchical taxonomies, using the term ID, name, slug, or custom meta data as the stored value.
User interaction control: Configure how child levels appear with options to show all levels, hide them until a parent is selected, or keep them visible but disabled until needed.
Manual term creation: Enable an option to let users add new terms directly through the form if a needed option doesn't exist in the taxonomy, which then updates the site's term list.
Integration with post actions: Map selected values to update post terms automatically upon form submission, facilitating content creation and editing workflows.
