Placeholders and blank sending

  • Currently, the {all_fields} tag in Gform notifications send all fields that are filled in and skips the empty or hidden fields.

    The default list fields (basic and multi-column) do not send if empty.

    Adding the dropdowns to the fields makes the notification see it as “Not empty” and sends the info in the notification.

    The workaround is to select the “show values” option and set the first option to have a blank value. Which Gforms then sees as empty and does not send the fields in the notification.

    Having placeholders like “Select {field_label}” or even custom placeholders would be nice. Especially when making large forms with a lot of list fields.

    P.S. when you add a line on the front end, only the first drop-down gets populated, all others are blank until options are selected.
