    Not sure if this is a bug or working as designed:

    We’ve got a multiselect field. If we add this field to search and set Field Input Type = Select, it is being rendered as a single select menu.

    That doesn’t seem to make sense to me, as the purpose of a multiselect field is to select multiple options in search and have them combined with AND/OR.

    If this is the expected behaviour, I’d like to suggest to change that so a multsiselect field is actually rendered as a multiselect.

    Right now, the only option seems to be to set Diplay Type = CHECK which isn’t ideal if the field has many options; being able to use Select2 search feature would be a lot better.

    Multiselect cannot be added to the search bar except as a select (single).

    That doesn’t exactly answer my qestion.

    Is the current bahaviour as decribed in my first post a) working as designed or b) a bug?

    In case of a) I am suggesting to change this/implement a multiselect for search and in case of b) it needs to be fixed.
