    Hi Greg, first of all thank you for your amazing plugin I love it, however I have an issue concerning the locations search.
    I would like to display it with a drop-down list but I couldn’t figure out how to edit the code in the file list.php

    I guess I have to change something in the following lines but I don’t know what or how. 

    <div class="advert-input <?php esc_attr_e( 'advert-input-type-' . $field['meta']['search_type'] ) ?>">

                <?php call_user_func( adverts_field_get_renderer($field), $field) ?>

            </div>

    I don’t have an extended knowledge in PHP so I hope you will be able to help me.

    Hi, you would need to add following code in your theme functions.php file

    add_filter( 'adverts_form_load', 'location_to_dropdown' );

 function location_to_dropdown( $form ) {

     if( $form['name'] != 'search' ) {
         return $form;
     }

     foreach( $form["field"] as $key => $field ) {
         if( $field["name"] == "location" ) {
             $field["type"] = "adverts_field_select";
             $field["options"] = array(
                 array("value" => "London", "text" => "London"),
                 array("value" => "New York", "text" => "New York"),
                 // more options here
             );
             $form["field"][$key] = $field;
         }
     }

     return $form;
 }

    this will replace default location text field with dropdown with predefined options.

    Hi thank you very much, it works well.

    I don’t know if that’s possible but if it is I would like to know how to resize the dropdown to have the two fields with a similar appearance.

    Thanks in advance.

    Please try adding following code to your theme CSS file, this should set proper select width.

    .advert-input select {
    width: 100%;
}
