fm:Form_Channel


The fm:Form_Channel component generates a selectbox, populated with channels from channels from your project.

This can be used for example to specify a channel in an upload form, or a list of channels to pick when creating a gallery.

Example

<fm:Form_Channel name="channel"/>

You can still add custom options, just like with the standard fm:Form_Select component. These options will end up on the top of the list.
