Dropdown, radial editing with inline editing

I have a few fields that are multiple checkboxes, dropdown selections, radials and I am trying to figure out how to set it up so that I can edit those using the inline editing feature. Please let me know. Thanks!

Hi,

So I assume that you have some custom fields and tried our custom field column to make those fields editable through our column. By default inline edit for our custom field column only works with the default input field or some other fields like date if you change the field type for that column.

Dropdown fields are possible with inline edit, but you’ll have to code the options yourself by using one of our filter. The reason for this, is that we don’t know any context about your custom fields and which options should be available in the dropdowns. The filter you can use to make the inline edit behave like a dropdown is:
https://www.admincolumns.com/documentation/filter-reference/acp-editing-view_settings/

But if you use a plugin to create your Custom Fields like ACF, Pods or Types, than you can have a look at our integration add-ons. There integrations know about the context of your custom fields so we can use that information to create dropdowns, checkboxes ets to change the behaviour of inline edit.

You can find more information about these integration add-ons here:

Toolset Types

Pods

Please notice that you need the business or developer license to use these integration add-ons.
