Overview
--------

[](#overview)

Once an Auto Suggest field has been created and added to a section within Craft, it will appear when editing the entry. If there are other entries in that section, typing in it will suggest existing values. This plugin uses Craft's built-in autosuggest component. When installed, it'll look a bit like this:

The list will by default show up to a maximum of 200 suggestions. Results are filtered to include the most frequently occuring.

### Field settings

[](#field-settings)

You can set some default suggestions for each Auto Suggest field. This will ensure some initial values are presented to CP users if there are not yeht any entries in a given section. It's also helpful for guiding users to enter specific values.

Default settings can be overridden. Please see the `autosuggest-config.php` file for details.
