Required Admidio Core adjustment

This plugin version relies on native HTML5 validation for required single-select fields. Admidio 5.0.17 currently renders an empty required single-select so that browsers can treat it as valid.

Before using this version, apply the following small Core adjustment. It affects required normal single-select fields only; multi-selects, optional fields and selects with an explicit firstEntry are unaffected.

1. Use only one empty option

File: src/UI/Presenter/FormPresenter.php, around line 1411 in addSelectBox().

For required fields, do not prepend an additional empty - Please choose - option. The relevant block must be:

} elseif ($optionsAll['showContextDependentFirstEntry']) {
    if ($optionsAll['property'] === self::FIELD_REQUIRED) {
        // if there is only one entry and a required field than select this entry
        if (count($values) === 1) {
            $optionsAll['defaultValue'] = array_key_first($values);
        }
    } else {
        array_unshift($valuesArray, array('id' => '', 'value' => ''));
    }
}

Remove this former else branch inside the FIELD_REQUIRED condition, if it is present:

} else {
    array_unshift($valuesArray, array(
        'id' => '',
        'value' => '- ' . $gL10n->get('SYS_PLEASE_CHOOSE') . ' -'
    ));
}

2. Make the first placeholder option empty

File: themes/simple/templates/sys-template-parts/form.select.tpl, around line 14.

Replace the existing placeholder option:

<option value="placeholder" hidden="hidden" disabled="disabled">{$data.label}</option>

with:

{if {array_key_exists key="required" array=$data.attributes} && !$data.multiselect && $data.firstEntry eq ""}
    <option value="" {if $data.defaultValue eq ""}selected="selected"{/if} hidden="hidden" disabled="disabled">- {$l10n->get('SYS_PLEASE_CHOOSE')} -</option>
{else}
    <option value="placeholder" hidden="hidden" disabled="disabled">{$data.label}</option>
{/if}

The required single-select now has exactly one initial option with value="". Therefore, browsers correctly block submission while no valid selection has been made.

This is a temporary workaround for Admidio 5.0.17 until the corresponding Core fix is available.
