Placeholder for Select Type Field

Hi there,

Thank you for contacting us and we are more than glad to help.

The select type fields do not have a placeholder option as it is a dropdown field. The HTML language doesn’t have a placeholder attribute for select elements so this is not a limitation of our plugin.

As per the HTML specifications, the placeholder attribute works with the following input types: text, url, tel, email, and password.

Kind regards,
Rob

Do you know how to add a value option in select field?

Example:
Size: Small | Medium | Large

And the field just shows the “Size”. Then I’m going to hide the field label for this.

Hello,

You can add options to the select list field by hitting the add option button, here’s a screenshot for your visual reference: https://share.getcloudapp.com/Apuz005d

I added the option but, I can still see the “Choose an Option” text on the select field.

Hi,

The reason for it is that you haven’t selected the default value of the field.

You can set the default value of the select list field option by checking the checkbox beside the options, please see: https://share.getcloudapp.com/8LuoOLw7

Okay thanks, does this mean that if the client missed choosing the size, it outputs the “Size” value? instead of Small, Medium, Large?

Hello,

It will read the default option you just set. If you set the small option as the default value of the field, and your users forgot to select the size then the default value will be the one they will be selected since it is as default.

Kind regards,
Rob

So is there a way to create a label/placeholder that won’t need to select as default?

Hello,

No, sorry.

Best regards,
Rob
