| Description | I assumed that this would provide custom values in a drop down list to select from, rather than hardcoding a list of values. However, there is a down arrow but nothing is listed. |
| Steps to reproduce | |
| Additional information | custom_values=on|off (whether to allow a custom typed value; if enabled then inline list widgets will not be available; default is off) <-- Assuming this isn't a bug, what's the point of custom typed values and dynamic choices if they cannot be chosen?
dynamic_choices (whether to feed custom values back in as possible selections for others; default is off) |
| Funded? | No |

custom_values=on means someone should be able to type their own value into that box.
dynamic_choices=on means that when someone types their own value into the box (and submits the entry), assuming the entry still exists, that value should then become an available choice in the dropdown for future submissions.
