I want to display fields based on selected multiselect input … following code just works, if only one value is selected. If I select more then one value it shows only one field (first selected from source model)
<enabled>
<label>Enabled</label>
...
<source_model>adminhtml/system_config_source_enabledisable</source_model>
</enabled>
<!-- this gives three options - shop, ebay, amazon -->
<channels>
...
<frontend_type>multiselect</frontend_type>
<source_model>module/system_config_source_channels</source_model>
<depends>
<enabled>1</enabled>
</depends>
</channels>
<mail_template_shop>
...
<depends>
<enabled>1</enabled>
<channels>shop</channels>
</depends>
</mail_template_shop>
<mail_template_ebay>
...
<depends>
<enabled>1</enabled>
<channels>ebay</channels>
</depends>
</mail_template_ebay>

Reason for The Issue
The issue you are facing is related to Javascript functionality for getting value of a multiselect attribute.
Magento's dependable fields are based on Javascript. They creates a JSON with all fields and dependable fields values like below.
When you select an option from multiselect attribute, it returns only first selected value.
Check this fiddle
Even if you select multiple options, you will always get first selected option value.
Solution for The Issue
You need to update your JS file form.js to achieve what you want.
First you have to add a new function which will get you all selected values of a Multiselect instead of only single value.
Add a new function in your form.js
Now use these values to check with your
trackChange
function in the same file. Replace below codeWith this code
And it should work for you.
