HI - I want to create a select list, that filters options based on a previous field? I want users to select a country from a drop down, that will filter a city list from a SQL table so it only shows cities in that country. I think you can hard code a sql criteria but I want to dynamically set it based on the country selected. Can I do this?

Hi
Insead, can a select list be filtered based on another field in the user record? So if a registered user has a country name stored in their profile, can I use this to filter what options are shown in the select list?

Yes, you can insert in every sql custom where our content plugin sintax, see docs at https://www.easy-profile.com/docs/26-plugin-content.html

example of where for options in select field (cities from country field)
country like "{user country raw}"


But if you use this, you have cities filtered only after you have saved country field
