 * Hi there, I am really enjoying this plugin and everything it offers.
   I am wondering
   if it is possible to do something similar to the screenshot below. I would like
   to include in the select option dropdown an additional text that is a brief description
   of the option.I am a developer myself so if the solution requires PHP/JS, it 
   would be totally fine. I just need to be pointed in the right direction. I was
   checking the available filters however I couldn’t find any for this particular
   case.

 * Hi [@geisthanen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geisthanen/)
 * I hope you’re well today!
 * As for descriptions, I got update from 9our developers and it seems currently
   it’s not possible to override that, I’m afraid.
 * There’s basically no support for HTML currently in select field options so it
   wouldn’t also be easily possible to make some words bold too because HTML that
   you add (regardless if you try to add inline CSS or only enclose some words in
   e.g. span element to address it with external CSS or JS) would be stripped off
   of the option label.
 * Kind regards,
    Adam
