Also note, I made a field for enabling the drop down:

It is just a yes/no single option box.

I did this so that the first field didn't have to be filled to show the drop down.

If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Are you sure this is the correct template? I copied the xml contents and replaced my Dropdown Information - Manual template with it and it broke the thread views? I am not sure but I think some parts maybe belong somewhere else? Maybe I am doing it wrong and I am supposed to import it as a product? could you give me a bit more detailed instructions of which part belongs where?

here's my template
