I'm using the latest version of myBB. When setting mandatory custom select fields on registration, the field always defaults to the first value. Is there a way to put a blank value at the top of the list, to force the user to make a choice? I've tried a blank line, a space and   in the list, but when saving the list, it removes the blank line and the space.   just shows up as ' ' in the list.
I think this'll need a small code edit... in ./member.php, line 541:
foreach($expoptions as $key => $val)
Before this, add:
$select .= "<option value=\"\"></option>";

That worked fine. I also added 'selected' to this option, so that it didn't highlight the first one in the list but highlighted the blank one. Thanks again.
I didn't understand what exactly you did?!!
I want to have a default blank choice for optional custom fields in registration page that can be leaved blank and a default blank item in mandatory fields that users should change it. I added the mentioned code modification in member.php (Using 1.6.8) but it still removes first blank line item and selects first item as default.
would you please explain more
