[SOLVED] Remove from "dropdown-field" was created by tuxic
At registration we have a dropdown-field(single select), with 950 names, and the user have to choose one when he or she register.
... but when a user have made a selection and registered, we want that selection removed (or "unselecteable") from the dropdown-field. We cant have two users make the same selection. Is that possible?

No it's not possible, if you remove the value then the user who just selected it will lose the value of their field. There's no feature to disable field values either.

Ok, thanks
... but could I use autoactions and the "redirect-action"? I have a selection like:
"Name 1"
"Name 2"
"Name 3"
etc.
If user1 register and select "Name 1", and later, user2 try to register and select "Name1", Then I want user2 to get redirected with at message that "Name1" is taken and he/she should make another selection.
Is something like that possible?

The conditions don't match like that so you'd need to use a CB Query Field to query the database and return a 1 or a 0 if the name has already been used for a user then perform the redirect if that condition is met. I suppose that'll work, but then it's just a guessing game for a user and they'll probably have 4-5 failed registrations then give up and never come back. Maybe an easier solution is to try Nicks DB Lookup field as believe it should be able to check if a value was used already or not.

Hi
I used the DB Lookup, and it woorked perfectly. Exactly what I was looking for.
Almost a blueprint of this " Plugin guide "
Thank you!
