 * Hello. This plugin is 90% what I need. I have just one issue/question.
 * I have a field in my talent database called body_type. It is multi-select that
   allows the user to choose more than one option. The result in the database looks
   something like this:
    `Athletic| Muscular| Stocky`
 * To search this field, I would like to use a dropdown select with options like
   this:
 *     ```
       Average
       Athletic
       Petite
       Muscular
       Stocky
       ```
   
 * However, dropdowns do not seem to allow for “LIKE” comparison or “CONTAINS” comparisons.
   Is there any way to make a dropdown in which “Muscular” has been selected show
   me the talent whose body_type field is `Athletic| Muscular| Stocky`?
 * Will the paid version accomplish this?
 * Thanks
