    Hey ho,

    Thank you a bunch for this great plugin. It saves a lot of time. I have one problem tho, as I can’t set default value to nothing. This creates small confusion as user think he must choose icon, plus sometimes thinks that if he didn’t change anything there it’s like the field is empty so I can’t rely on my if statement ;o)

    Field is set to “Allow null” and not required tho still can’t not set default value https://prntscr.com/6z7k5i

    For now I just added:

    $choice_null = array(0=>'null');
array_unshift($field['choices'],$choice_null);

    before acf_render_field_setting for default field, but if you have a solution for that, it would be awesome.

    Thanks for the feedback, I think someone else has requested this as well in the past but it slipped my mind in previous updates.

    I will try to include this in my next release, although I do not have an ETA for that right now as I am very busy on other projects.

    I have added this functionality in version 1.7.

    It is worth noting though that ACF or WordPress seem to be caching the values on existing font awesome fields. I had to create a new field to get the ‘null’ choice to show up.

    that’s awesome news. I just test it and it works just fine. Thanks!
