I have created a data set for a camp registration form. Several of the boxes are dropdowns, for example, STATE. I have created all the items in this dropdown but when I use preview or live site the dropdown will not show any options to select. Campruwa.com/lfmc

That did. Learn something new everyday. Will add that to my deployment checklist going forward.
Thanks @Kristof
I am using to connect to a list and still not getting values in the dropdown.
Dont use the first connector, use only connect to a list
Both
When connecting a drop-down to a collection there are two options in the editor. The first links the drop-down's selection to a column in a collection to be populated upon form submission. The second option, "Connect a List" reads the data from a column in a collection and fills the drop-down with those values. Which are you doing?
On mine, I created the list items for the dropdown. Connect the dropdown box and it's items to the same database. In preview and live none of the dropdown items will show and so the user can't select anything. So the form can not be submitted because it wont let them choose any anything. For example, select the state they live in. You see the field text State, but when you click on it none of the state's are displayed to be selected.
So in the Wix editor you linked the drop-down to a particular column in a collection? If you go to the databases section and look at that collection, there are rows of data that have entries in that column? If you examine the live version of the collection, not the sandbox version, is the data there as well? Did you set a filter of some sort when you linked the data to the drop-down?
Hi Nicholas
It is connected to another collection.
I have checked the permissions for that collection and set them all to Anyone
How is the dropdown being populated? Are you manually entering the items through the Wix Editor, or has it been linked to a column in a collection?
Im having the same issue... I have checked permission and still nothing shows.
