#15136
Thanks for helping to make MODX better. This fix should check, wether the TV option forceSelection is deactivated and not add the unsupported values then. Otherwise the patch looks ok.
What happens if an unsupported value is in the TV and the TV is saved?
I just put up a PR to fix this in 3.x. Take a look (see #16242), as it may inform how you approach this. I believe the un-patched file is virtually the same for 2.x and 3.x, so you may be able to use what I've done if you like. The one thing I see (that would need fixing) is that you probably end up duplicating selected values in the list when they are among the pre-defined input options values.

It is stored normally. It is not duplicated in the Database. Also, there is no duplication of the value, JS does not allow this to be done in the admin panel. And even if it is possible to write the value, then after saving and when updating the page (F5), the data is displayed correctly.

Duplication of the value does not occur. Js does not allow this to be done in the admin panel. I also thought that it would be duplicated, but as practice has shown, this does not happen, because unique values come to be recorded in the field DB.
