Gravity Forms Chained Selects is an official extension of the Gravity Forms ecosystem that allows you to create chained selection fields (also known as cascading dropdowns) within your WordPress forms. With this tool, the options in a dropdown are dynamically updated based on the selection made in the previous field, offering a much smoother and more accurate user experience.
This extension is designed for those who manage complex forms with extensive lists of options: car dealerships that need year, make, and model selectors; service directories that require navigating by industry, service type, and provider; online stores with product catalogs organized by category, subcategory, and item; or geographic location forms such as country, province, and city. Instead of overwhelming users with endless lists, Chained Selects guides each person to the correct option naturally and quickly.
Configuration is surprisingly simple: just prepare a CSV file with the hierarchical option columns and upload it directly from the form editor. The Chained Selects field is added from the advanced fields section, and once the CSV is uploaded, the options are automatically displayed in the order of the columns. For those who need greater flexibility, it is also possible to connect the dropdowns to external data sources through hooks and filters, allowing options to be obtained in real time from databases or APIs without manual updates.
Its main benefits include reducing friction in long forms, improving the quality of collected data by limiting options to those truly relevant, and a notable increase in form completion speed. It is an ideal solution both for agencies managing complex forms for their clients and for non-profit organizations that need to efficiently collect detailed information.
If you are looking to simplify your users' experience and optimize data collection in forms with multiple selection levels, Gravity Forms Chained Selects is the tool you were waiting for.
