Chris Swede I am encountering a problem with dropdowns in the form. I have created a dropdown custom field with five different values, 1-5. When I save the form, there is always an empty label/value pair added on top, which becomes an empty selectable line in the front-end dropdown. Update: The same error also occurs if I create a radio custom field.

This is what is saved in the database:

"dropdown_field";s:8:"required";s:2:"no";s:5:"label";s:7:"Ranking";s:4:"name";s:14:"_pn_apr_rating";
s:7:"is_meta";s:3:"yes";s:4:"help";s:0:"";s:3:"css";s:0:"";s:5:"first";s:5:"Rate";s:7:"options";a:6:{s:0:"";s:0:"";i:1;s:9:"one star";i:2;s:9:"two stars";i:3;s:11:"three stars";i:4;s:10:"four stars";i:5;s:10:"five stars";}

I can fix this manually, by deleting empty options in phpMyAdmin:

"dropdown_field";s:8:"required";s:2:"no";s:5:"label";s:7:"Ranking";s:4:"name";s:14:"_pn_apr_rating";
s:7:"is_meta";s:3:"yes";s:4:"help";s:0:"";s:3:"css";s:0:"";s:5:"first";s:5:"Rate";s:7:"options";a:5:{i:1;s:9:"one star";i:2;s:9:"two stars";i:3;s:11:"three stars";i:4;s:10:"four stars";i:5;s:10:"five stars";}

Hello Chris,
Please confirm me if you are using the latest version of User Frontend which is 2.2.6 and using the latest version of WordPress. I have tested this issue but failed to reproduce.
You can check for theme and plugin conflicts to be sure. You can deactivate all other plugins expect User Fronted and switch to a default WordPress theme like “Twenty Twelve” and check and let me know.

Thank You 🙂
