@hpardess, @kimkuere I’ve been struggling with the same thing, i had a personAttribute with a foreign key to a concept but couldn’t get it as a dropdown that retrieves concepts the personattribute is related to. Finally i’ve just decided to extend the registrationapp on my own and add there personAttributeWithConcept field. I hope this is what you looking for here it is [https://github.com/salta-kozbagarova/openmrs-module-registrationapp](https://github.com/salta-kozbagarova/openmrs-module-registrationapp) .

@saltanat if this is functionality which did not exist, did you consider raising a pull request? That way, you do not have to go through the pain of maintaining your own module. 🙂

Yes i mean a pull request for that repository. You would need to first create a ticket: [https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Tickets](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Tickets) And then take a look at these tips to know what pull requests require before they can be reviewed and merged: [https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Pull+Request+Tips](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Pull+Request+Tips)

why can’t i find my repository in the drop down list of forks on creating pull request page? Do i do anything wrong. In the openmrs modules’ repository i go to New pull request but there in the list of forks i can see just static 30 or more repositories, and can’t find mine.

Is this task completed? Can we add a field that has dropdown values?
