Default Value for Group Dropdown

  • I am using the mailchimp list subscribe widget and my list includes a required list group dropdown. Is there a way to have that dropdown preload w/ the default selection? Currently it is blank until I make a selection.
    Thanks,
    Cara

  • Hey Cara!

    You could definitely do something like that. The quickest way to do it, that comes to mind at least, would be to edit the mailchimp_widget.php file. Even though, generally, we advise against editing this file, this will give you the option to remove that blank field from your dropdown group. However, whenever that plugin is updated, you’ll lose this customized option. So make sure to go back in and update it when the plugin gets updated.

    Essentially, you just delete the blank <option value> tag from the dropdown group area to have a specific option as the top, predefined choice. In the end, you’ll wind up with something like this:
