Placeholder instead of include_blank — lines

Take this example as your select tag,

?? [select menu-771 "sam" "joe" "mike"]

Your first on the list would be sam
When generating your tag in the CF7 settings page, do not check the “Insert a blank item as the first option”?? button.

Also, add the first item you want to appear as the first in the list you would insert into Options textarea. ??

Thanks for your reply davmerit.

It’s an appointment form.

If sam will be first, all visits will be to sam.
If I take ‘Select doctor’ as a first item, all visits will be to Select Doctor :)))

So, I hope you understand, that it’s nor what I need.

Use first_as_label option.

Thanks for your help but I’m not sure…

This is the code, I use:
[select* menu-206 "Select doctor" "David Mikaberidze" "Sophio Gelashvili" "Maya Dolidze"][text* your-name placeholder "Full Name"][text* phone-number placeholder "Phone Number"][email your-email placeholder "Email Address"][date date][textarea your-message placeholfer "Message"][submit "SEND MESSAGE"]

Where and how can I add first_as_label option?!

@merkucio – I think I understand you ??

In your case you would do

[select* menu-206 first_as_label "Select doctor" "David Mikaberidze" "Sophio Gelashvili" "Maya Dolidze"]

“Select doctor” becomes the label but non-selectable. Other selectable elements would be “David Mikaberidze” “Sophio Gelashvili” “Maya Dolidze”.
