• Hello Fabrik Community

    Fabrik is now in the hands of the development team that brought you Fabrik for Joomla 4. We have recently transitioned the Fabrik site over to a new server and are busy trying to clean it up. We have upgraded the site to Joomla 4 and are running the latest version of Fabrik 4. We have also upgraded the Xenforo forum software to the latest version. Many of the widgets you might have been used to on the forum are no longer operational, many abandoned by the developers. We hope to bring back some of the important ones as we have time.

    Exciting times to be sure.

    The Fabrik 4.0 Official release is now available. In addition, the Fabrik codebase is now available in a public repository. See the notices about these in the announcements section

    We wish to shout out a very big Thank You to all of you who have made donations. They have really helped. But we can always use more...wink..wink..

    Also a big Thank You to those of you who have been assisting others in the forum. This takes a very big burden off of us as we work on bugs, the website and the future of Fabrik.

How to make a list-box (in a form) a required field, but with no value selected or the text "Select.." shown? My listboxes always shows the first selection in the list-box. I can make the field required (notempty validation plugin), but it's not useful, if a value in the listbox always is selected. I want the user to do a active selection, not just save the form without validation warnings.
 
Set "show please select"=yes, value please select= e.g. 0 and a validation "is not" 0 (you need to install from GitHub) (or a php validation return $data!='0'; )
 
I feel a bit stupid, but I don't find the selection "show please select"=yes for my dropdown element. But I have many Fabrik plugins disabled. But not any useful to enable for this case I think.

Fabrik 3, 2 days old version from github.
 
Uuups, this was for the databasejoin.
In dropdown create one suboption value=0, label="please select", default checked, validation as above.
 
We are in need of some funding.
More details.

Thank you.
