Multiple Choice Field: allow the bar character in the options.

    Hi, 

    I'd really like to use dynamic tagging for my Infusionsoft integration.

    I can't currently as most of my tags contain the pipe "|" character.

    So in the "Multiple Choice Properties > Options" field, the tag is automatically delimited at each pipe. 

    For example, this single tag:

    "Customer | Enquiry | Shoes | Yellow"

    Is converted into the following options:

    Customer
    Enquiry
    Shoes
    Yellow

    Using the pipe is a common naming convention adopted by Infusionsoft users.

    Is there anyway around this? 

    Can Tag IDs be used for example.

    Thanks! Dave.

    Currently, the Multiple Choice options does not accept the "|" bar character, I will submit a request to our back-end team. If this is allowed, you will be updated via this thread.

    ok thanks for the update. 


    Maybe if you could you allow a bar if tag names are enclosed in quotes?

    Eg: 

    This:

    "Customer | Enquiry | Shoes | Yellow"

    Not this:

    Customer | Enquiry | Shoes | Yellow


    Thanks, Dave.
