I am using the new SELECT element. How do I enable the “Value” field to link to another page in the website when a “Label” is selected?

The “Select” is a Form component and is for sending values via a form, not for creating a drop down menu with links.

If you wanted a dropdown menu you could create one using the other build-in components, here I’m using a “Dropdown” Component with some buttons in it so you can style it however you like!

Hopefully this does what you need 🙂
