Set first option to "Please Choose" enabled values and cleared that value (so its nothing). As per the post above really. I just wanted to see if there is an option to do that automatically per form. It's cumbersome if you have 12 dropdowns or more per form and they all should be configured that same way.<br /> Anyway, it will do for now. Luckily there is the duplicate function :-) </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/drop-downs-need-please-select-option#post-43072 Sun, 04 Dec 2011 17:19:54 +0000 Chris Hajer 43072@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Yes, that is possible. It is set on a per-field basis, not the whole form. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/drop-downs-need-please-select-option#post-43020 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 07:35:36 +0000 sascha 43020@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Is it now possible to:</p> <p>1. Set the standard value of dropdown fields to i.e. "Please choose"?<br /> (all dropdown fields in all forms/all dropdown fields in a specific form/specific dropdown fields in a specific form)</p> <p>2. If the dropdown field is set as required: make sure the form does not validate if the the choice is left as "Please Choose"? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/drop-downs-need-please-select-option#post-34304 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 19:46:54 +0000 Trisha 34304@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>UPDATE: Below was my original message but I just figured out how to do this without leaving a blank first option - your earlier answer gave me the clue.....so I enabled values (which, for anyone else reading this, if you don't enable values then your options are used as the values), then I deleted the value for my first option, which is a "Please select..." option......thus, no value means that the field will now validate as needed, and require the user to select a different option from the list. Yaay!</p> <p>But I'm leaving my original message because this could be made more user-friendly, or explained better in the documentation.</p> <p>----------------------original forum message-----------<br /> I'd also like to cast a vote for making dropdowns have the ability to have a Please Select as the first option and still have it require a choice to validate.</p> <p>The reason is that in some situations where space is very tight we don't use labels, and instead use the first item in the dropdown to tell the user what to do - e.g. "please select your part number"..... that makes it clear without the need for extra vertical or horizontal space for a label, but the field then can't truly be "required" - I'd love to see this feature soon..... </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/guid-entry-id#post-30704 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 19:00:06 +0000 Pippin 30704@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I found a work around, such an awesome plugin. Thanks. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/guid-entry-id#post-30689 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 15:35:37 +0000 Pippin 30689@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>thanks for the posts. I was wondering if it is possible to have two seprate Prefixes for two different choices. For example I want someone to either choose A or B, I would like the a different prefix to show up before each set of random numbers specific to the selection. I'm not sure if I'm approaching this correctly. I realize I need unique numbers to be generated without any repeats. The Prefix and Number is for upload identification purposes. I tried editing but keep getting errors. <a href="http://www.pastie.org/2250073" rel="nofollow">http://www.pastie.org/2250073</a></p> <p>thanks. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/guid-entry-id#post-23191 Wed, 13 Apr 2011 16:48:44 +0000 ssbsupport 23191@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>"it would make it easier for users to add a unique id to their entries if we made an advanced field that did it for them.

I don't see it anywhere so I'm guessing not - but if it did and I'm overlooking it please let me know!<br /> Thanks! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/guid-entry-id#post-19123 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 18:33:20 +0000 Gil Namur 19123@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thanks Carl! </p> <p>Will also want to get back to the image insert thing (post URL vs file URL) at some point but I have lots on my plate right now.</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> Gil </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/guid-entry-id#post-19106 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 16:36:45 +0000 Carl Hancock 19106@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>@Gil BTW The latest development release on the Downloads page contains the fix for the server path issue with the redirect to login problem you had been encountering if you want to install the latest. </p>
