 * I have some conditional fields set up in this form. With some of the select dropdowns,
   if you choose “Other Insurance”, a new text field drops down for people to fill
   in their information. However, once that option is selected, regardless of whether
   someone adds data to the text field, the dropdown menu stops working.
 * Select “No”
    Under “What Type of Insurance Are You Interested In?”, select “Personal
   Insurance” In the following dropdown, select “Other”. Now try to click on the
   dropdown to select a different option than Other. The select field no longer 
   works.
 * The same thing happens with the “How Did You Find Us” field – select “I was referred
   to you.”
 * Any thoughts on why this might happen? It was happening on version 1.8.X, but
   I also updated to the newest version and it is still broken.
 * Thanks!

 * Weird bug, but I cannot think of any reason why the Conditional Fields plugin
   could be causing this. It seems theme related. Have you tried to recreate the
   same form on another theme? You can also try and recreate the form here if you
   like: [https://conditional-fields-cf7.bdwm.be/form-tester/?test-form=blank+form](https://conditional-fields-cf7.bdwm.be/form-tester/?test-form=blank+form)
 * If it also breaks, you can send me the generated link so I can fiddle around 
   with it.
