    Hi! I am using dynamic dropdowns in my form.

    I would like all of this to happen in one use of the widget.

    First Dropdown: [CHOOSE YOUR SHAKE FLAVOR]
        Options: Pumpkin Spice
                     Chocolate Banana

    Second Dropdown: [CHOOSE YOUR TEA FLAVOR]
        Options: Raz
                     Lemon

    Third Dropdown: [CHOOSE YOUR ALOE FLAVOR]
        Options: Mango Aloe Shot (*Currently Only This Option)

    Is that possible??

    Separate question: Can I have a Fourth Dropdown where someone can actually type in an answer? Like Name for this Combo: "Sally"


    Thank you!

    Maybe something like this would work for you:

    And this is how it works:

    Here is my test form as well: https://form.jotform.com/73124753951963

    If you meant to have it in the Dynamic DropDown widget, then I'm afraid it is not possible.

    If you had something else in mind please let us know.

    Thank you!

    Thank you for your response. So, I'm wondering if there can be 3 separate dropdowns. In your example, there are 2.

    Does that make sense?

    I want the first one to be able to select shake flavor.

    The second one to be able to select tea flavor.

    Third one to be able to select aloe flavor.

    I need all 3 of those answers in the form submission to create the order for the customer.

    Thank you

    I'm afraid that's not possible. The dynamic dropdown widget allows only 1 parent dropdown. You can't have 3 parent dropdowns displayed by default with different child options.

    Your best option is to separate them into 3 different dynamic dropdown widgets.
