Add category dropdown field on front-end

Hi,

great plugin. I am trying to add category dropdown menu to front-end of the form. I have created 5 categories (for each service) and I know this has to be manually assigned, but it would be really nice if user could select the category on front-end already.

I have searched your support doc and forum and came across this:

“`How to customise the Submission Form fields in Site Reviews version 2:

1. Create a custom form: https://github.com/geminilabs/site-reviews/wiki/Custom-Submission-Form-Field-Order

2. Once you have created the custom form, replace the hidden category field:

echo $html->renderField([
‘type’ => ‘hidden’,
‘name’ => ‘category’,
‘prefix’ => false,
‘value’ => $category,
]);

With this:

// Category field
echo $html->renderField([
‘label’ => __( ‘Category’, ‘site-reviews’ ),
‘name’ => ‘category’,
‘options’ => [” => __( ‘Select a category’, ‘site-reviews’ )] + $db->getTerms(),
‘prefix’ => false,
‘required’ => true,
‘type’ => ‘select’,
‘value’ => $category,
]);`

Since the link above is not working anymore (get redirected), I searched a bit more and finally did this.

1. create a file in path child-theme/site-reviews/submit-form.php
2. paste in the following code:

<?php defined( 'WPINC' ) || die; ?>

<form method="post" action="" name="glsr-<?= $form_id; ?>" class="<?= $class; ?>">
<?php

    echo $html->renderField(['type' => 'honeypot']);

?>
</form>

But I am not getting categories to show on front-end. Am I missing something?

Cheers,
