Remove the (none) option on state dropdown

I think it's the uniSelectorCountry.NoneRecordValue property. Just make sure to copy the control, and not change the default one.

I tried this. This is not working.

I changed this.uniSelectorCountry.NoneRecordValue = "Select State"

I think this is controlled by this property on the control:

/// <summary>
/// Add '(none)' record to the dropdownlist.
/// </summary>
public bool AddNoneRecord
{
    get
    {
        if (mAddNoneRecord == null)
        {
            mAddNoneRecord = ValidationHelper.GetBoolean(GetValue("AddNoneRecord"), false);
        }
        return (bool)mAddNoneRecord;
    }
    set
    {
        mAddNoneRecord = value;
    }
}

Then they fill it like this:

 if (AddNoneRecord)
                {
                    // Add (none) record when requested
                    uniSelectorCountry.SpecialFields.Add(new SpecialField() { Text = GetString("general.selectnone"), Value = string.Empty });
                }

So just changed the text value and you should be good to go. EXAMPLE: uniSelectorCountry.SpecialFields.Add(new SpecialField() { Text = "Select State", Value = string.Empty });

Thanks Joshua, however I was unable to find this code in my file. The syntax you gave me resulted in an error.

BTW, I'm working on kentico 7 and not the latest

That was for version 8...my bad, the code will be very similar, just find this section

string[,] fields = null;
        if (AddSelectCountryRecord && AddNoneRecord)
        {
            fields = new string[,]
                         {
                             { GetString("countryselector.selectcountryrecord"), "" },
                             { GetString("general.selectnone"), "" }
                         };
        }
        else
        {
            // Add 'none' record when requested
            if (AddNoneRecord)
            {
                fields = new string[,] { { GetString("general.selectnone"), "" } };
            }
        }

and change the values to match what you want. That should work...You may have to play around with which parts to change depending on your settings, or you could just change all of them.

I tried various combinations but I failed to get what I want. I want to have "Select State" instead of "none" for State drop down beneath country

Thanks

Are you using the getstring method in yours? this method is used for values in the resx file, so if you aren't storing your values there, then you should be removing the getstring method and just typing in a string.

Well I tried something like this and few other combinations

// Add 'none' record when requested if (AddNoneRecord) { fields = new string[,] { { "Select State", "" } }; } Though I was able to add "Select state" to the country's dropdown but was unable to make it work for State.

Could you help me with exact code that works for you? I am new to .NET coding.

Regards Chetan

try placing this in with the other code that was provided. The uniselectorstate is a uniselector containing the states

uniSelectorState.SpecialFields.Add(new SpecialField() { Text = GetString("general.selectnone"), Value = string.Empty });

Could you please provide kentico 7 compatible code?

Thanks

Can anyone urgently help me on this please?

Many thanks!!
