[VANTAGE] checkboxes instead of drop down for categories

Hi,

On the add listing page, is it possible to allow people to choose more than one category using check-boxes instead of the standard drop-down ?

Thanks!

In Vantage you can use the custom form function to create the listing forms which are completed by the customer. There you can select text fields, dropdown boxes, radio buttons, check boxes etc to the form based on what fields you want to include. You can see the specific section for this in the Vantage admin demo here. Thanks.

*please see my post below for clarification of this*

Thanks, ok that sounds good. I'm just wondering how I would then tie those check-boxes to categories? If I just add checkboxes to the form, they're only that, checkboxes, they're not connected with the categories in order for the listings to be added to those categories. I might be wrong though?

I'm very sorry, I misread your original question and was thinking only of the new listing forms. In fact you cannot select multiple categories in Vantage which is why there is a dropdown rather than check boxes. Multiple category selection is something we considering in the future, however this is not confirmed or available at this time. I apologize for the confusion here. Thanks.
