Hello,

I would like to use Custom Select but with dynamically generated items from the CMS and NOT via the Select Field as in the default. The options from the CMS are also displayed on the published page, but unfortunately they cannot be selected. What am I doing wrong?

Hi @j.m.schmidtks!

You could use [List Select](https://finsweet.com/attributes/list-select) to populate a Select Field with items from a CMS collection.

I apologize for the delay, I took a look at you page and the select fields seem to be working great, were you able to resolve the issue?  
If not, feel free to send me a read-only link and I’ll be happy to take another look.

Let me know!
