Plugin details

A highly customizable dropdown element with full control over colors, fonts, and styling. Supports dynamic data from databases, option sets, and other Bubble elements. Perfect for creating beautiful, branded dropdown menus.
- Option to add default selected value or leave blank (great for building repeating group filter systems - i.e.: filtering products etc.).

- Ability to show / hide the "clear" selection value. There are times where you might want to force a value selection and not want the users to reset the dropdown's value to 'empty' (for example product selection). There are other times where you want the user to be able to select from a list of options, or reset the dropdowns value to 'empty' 9for example product filtering). Both approaches are possible within this powerful bubble dropdown plugin.

- Ability to change the text of the "clear" selection value (i.e. clear, reset, all, show all products etc."

- Ability to style the dropdown's colors (dark mode, light mode, roll over highlight colors etc.

- Ability to control the dropdowns max height. This is great for long lists as it allows you to control the max container height for your list. If your list expands beyond the max container height, then the user can scroll to see the values within your dropdown menu. This is optimal when working on mobile development.

- Ability to set the cell height of each row in the dropdown list. This helps you create entirely unique dropdown element designs.

- Auto binding can be enabled / disabled

Fixing Dropdown Overlay Issues

Dropdown menus sometimes appear behind or in front of other elements on the page - this is a common layering problem in Bubble. To resolve this:

To bring your dropdown forward:

Right-click on the dropdown element (or its parent group)
Select "Move to front"

To push interfering elements back:

Select any elements that are covering your dropdown
Right-click and choose "Move to back"

This adjusts the z-index layering and ensures your dropdown appears above all other page elements.

Nebulum Better Dropdown is Amazing!
September 18th, 2025
This dropdown actually lets you have functionality and control over design. It's easy to use, but powerful. I love that I can customize it to match my branding for a professional website.
