Hello,
Could you please tell me how is it possible to remove "---Please Select---" option from dropdown menu in product page?
I tried removing (<option value=""><?php echo $text_select; ?></option>) from catalog/view/theme/default/template/product/product.tpl
but nothing happened.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

What do you want there in its place?

If they have to select, just make the option "required" - no more "please select", users will have to make a selection

Its a bit complicated, but in a few words:
In its place i want the first option to be appeared. Due to the fact that the quantity of the product will be chosen from a drop down menu and the price depends on this, i want to remove ---Please select--- completely from it.
I hope I made myself clear.

Did you clear your cache (including browser cache )once you removed that code from the product.tpl file as this works on default 2.3.0.2

Yeah i did it and still the please select option remains.

Is this for the select option dropdown ??

Did you remove the code from the correct place as there are multiple instances of it in product.tpl ??

I repeat - just make the option required on the admin side. 99% certain that's the solution you're looking for! No need to touch strings or templates.

Yes i did! There were two instances of the code and removed them both and still nothing! I also made it required and the problem persists!

Silly question but are you using default theme ??

Yes i use the default theme of opencart.

Can you share your url just to rule out a cache issue

Here's the link to a product which has dropdown menu.
http://www.revisios.gr/shop/index.php?r ... duct_id=50

Could you attach your catalog/view/theme/default/template/product/product.tpl

Sure!

Can't attach it.. OMG

Well it is definately removed from there so that file should be fine.
EDIT that file works fine on my default 2.3.0.2 so....
Has your host got any cacheing system in place

I refreshed from extensions > modifications and everything is fine! Thank you!

I did ask if you had cleared cache earlier, suppose i should have said to click the refresh as well

Never mind, as long as it is working now

It's ok, my bad too!
Thank you for your quick replies!

Hey no worries, happy to have been of help

Must make a mod to disable cacheing for testing purposes, its annoying that you have to click on the refresh everytime you make changes lol
