Multiple select field in LocomotiveCMS?

I need to set up a field in LocomotiveCMS that is similar to Select but allows multiple selections. Something like in HTML... does LocomotiveCMS allow for that, or will I have to do some ruby coding to get that to work?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Old question but still a thing.

I'm unsure whether your question relates to fields within the Locomotive CMS Back Office or on the front end so I've addressed both below.

Front End

Irrespective of whether or not you're dealing with Locomotive CMS content types, either of the following will allow selection of multiple values on the front end:

  • Listbox (select element with the multiple attribute)
  • A series of checkbox inputs with the same value in the name property

Back Office

If you need to allow selection of multiple values within the Back Office, you can do this for content types using the has_many or many_to_many content type relationships.

If you need multiple value selection outside of content types (e.g. in metafields schema) you're unfortunately out of luck.
