How to Add Chosen Field

Select the form that you want to add to the Chosen field. You will see the Edit Form panel on the left of the Elementor editor. Under the Form Fields section click Add Item. A new field item will be added to the Form Fields section. Change the field type to Chosen and set the field controls as you want.

The chosen field has these controls:

  • Label: text to show above the field.
  • Required: make this field required or not.
  • Placeholder: add placeholder text to the field.
  • Options: options to add to the chosen field. Each option is in a separate line. You can differentiate between the label and the value by using pipe char(“|”). For example: Option A|option_a
  • No Result text: the chosen field supports search functionality. Add text here to show when no result is found.
  • Multiple Selection: whether to allow users to choose multiple options or not. If you enable this option, the Max Selected Options setting will appear.
  • Max Selected Option: you can limit the maximum selected option here.
  • Column Width: set the width of the field within the container.
