Topic: Blank or empty fields on signup - how?

Hi all.
Hope someone can help me on this little issue.

When a user sign-up on the site, i want all the required fields to be Blank/empty as standard, to force the user to chose gender, birthday, country ethnicity and so on.

It seems like it is mainly on the "drop down" choices that it is not blank from the start.

Exactly how would i make it start with an empty field (or a text: Choose) to make sure the user make the right settings.

Thanks...

Hi,
1. edit your account_regsiter.tpl file, add <option value="">Please select</option> to your "combo" type fields (look at the search.tpl for hint)

2. Make sure you don't have ticked default value in checkbox at CP-Edit field.
