Is there a way to add a "None" choice without it displaying "None" in the post bit? Or a way to uncheck your choice?

Many thanks in advance... Great Mod, I like a lot lot lot.:up:

Heck, I couldn't even change it in Admin CP.

I don't want to trouble you, just checking to see if its this way for others... Maybe its just me, I'll see if I can work this out.

Thanks so much.

You can also see the text field I added to get out of it as mentioned earlier.

What is happening here is, that after this is tested by the installer, you cannot uncheck your selection to leave it blank. A flag will always show in postbit/postbit_legacy.
I added the option "None", added a blank transparent image named, none.gif.
That still shows a white box in members postbit/postbit_legacy.
I also did as HappyFeet did, by adding a text field for member imput, but, that is kinda silly adding it when all options for military are there for members to pick from.

So, I changed the profile field type to Single-Line Text Box.
Title: Military Branch
Desciption:

<fieldset id="question" title="Question">
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="left">
<tr>
<td>What branch of the Military are you in now or previously in?</td>
</tr>
</table>
</fieldset>


<fieldset id="militarybranch" title="Military Branch">
<legend>Please Copy & Paste your selection and add it to the text area below.</legend>
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="left">
<tr>
<td class="smallfont" colspan="Military Branch">
<tr><td>Army</tr>
<tr><td>Navy</tr>
<tr><td>Air Force</tr>
<tr><td>Coast Guard</tr>
<tr><td>Marine Corps</tr>
<tr><td> Note: Using this option will show the flag for that military branch in every post you make.</tr>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</fieldset>

Set Default: No
Field Required: No
Field Editable bu User: Yes
Private Field: No
Field Searchable on Members List: Yes
Show on Members List: Yes
Display Page: Edit Your Details

Adding the code to the Discription Box will result the following.



I am not trying to re-write your addon Redlinemotorsports, I am only making it easier on me & others that use your addon, if one of our members selects a branch, out of curiosity & can't remove it.
