    Hi,

    I want to override the default text “– select a xyz –” when using a custom taxonomy. As I can see, there are two functions load_post_type_choices() and load_taxonomy_choices() where this option is set. When I delete this option it appears everytime after saving my form.

    Am I’m able to override it with a hook or are there other ways to achieve this goal?

    Thank you very much for your help

    not too elegant solution: modify or delete words “select a” from gfcptaddonbase.php line 341.

    to developer: maybe another solution if you add an i18n function instead of hardcode text.

    I am having the same problem and I took a deeper look at the code. You are supposed to be able to change the first choice’s label text and that will replace the default one. However, there is a bug in 3.1.1 on line 330 of gfcptaddonbase.php . The call:

    rgars( $field, 'choices/0/text/' );

    contains a trailing slash, which results in an empty value always being returned for the first choice’s label and therefore always overriding your custom first choice with the default.

    Thanks for reporting this. It has been fixed in v3.1.2 which will be available soon.
