    So close to finishing this great plugin page. I am letting users create their own Posts for my website. There are 3 possible Categories. I have a total of 10 categories but I don’t want to show the user all 10, only the 3 they can choose from. Is there a way to use the Category type field but limit what categories will show for them to choose from?

    I have tried the also tried the Form creation with a Short code but I don’t see where to set a Category using that method.

    There is a way to limit the categories. I will send a code snippet soon.

    In the form builder, you need to add a taxonomy field and choose category as the taxonomy type.

    Thank you. I have some forms that only have 1 post category. Can the category be set to a default?

    Thanks so much for your help.

    Just a reminder, you were going to send me a code snippet to limit the number of Categories that show up on the Taxonomy choice field. Does this code widget go in the Elementor Code snipet area? Thank you for your help.

    Thank you for the fix to the plugin so I can see the Legacy option now. Just waiting for the Code to designate taxonomy options so I don’t have to show all of them in the drop down.
