I have select boxes for state, country, and a custom. They all work great. However, if you go to the update profile page, you are forced to re-select before you can save. The original select box entry gets carried into the update page by setting the value placeholder in the option value that is "selected". So for the update profile form I place "[[+state]]", for example, in that "selected" option.
I don’t want to remove the "required" parameter from these particular names, as I want to ensure the members keep all fields filled. This only happens to select boxes and none of the other input boxes I have marked as "required".
I hope that made sense.
Let me clarify, as I am now seeing a couple threads where folks think they have this solved.
I am carrying over the value for the select boxes from register to update just fine. The issue is when you go to update and hit submit, the values disappear from the selected areas and you have to re-select. This is not a big deal to me, but of course, the end-users will get their panties in a twist that they have to re-enter 3 boxes.
I’d also like to find a way to make this work for the confirm password box.
