 * Hi,
 * I am creating a form with a Dynamic Drop Down that pulls a custom CPT in my theme.
   I want some of the drop downs to pull from more than one category. This is the
   code smart grid the plug-in creates
 * [dynamic_select dynamic_select-710 “source:post:portfolio” “taxonomy:portfolio_categories:
   line-a” “taxonomy:portfolio_categories:line-b” “taxonomy:portfolio_categories:
   line-c”]
 * This code pulls nothing. If I change it to
 * [dynamic_select dynamic_select-710 “source:post:portfolio” “taxonomy:portfolio_categories:
   line-a || taxonomy:portfolio_categories:line-b || taxonomy:portfolio_categories:
   line-c”]
 * or
    [dynamic_select dynamic_select-710 “source:post:portfolio” “taxonomy:portfolio_categories:
   line-a || line-b || line-c”]
 * or
 * [dynamic_select dynamic_select-710 “source:post:portfolio” “taxonomy:portfolio_categories:
   line-a|line-b|line-c”]
 * It only pulls items from the first category.
 * Can it pull from more than one category? I found another plugin that works but
   I would rather not have to install another plugin.
 * Thanks,
    Doreen

   that is not availabe with the tag manager.

 * it should, but I realised there is an issue which I have fixed in v4.11 (to be
   released shortly).
 * You can try the [beta version of 4.11](https://github.com/aurovrata/cf7-grid-layout/archive/refs/tags/v4.11.0beta.zip).
