Archive Shortcode Drop-down Menu First Entry
-
When using [archives format=option] for a drop-down of the posts, the drop-down renders on the web page with the first entry as two dashes. How do I make the first entry a name/label like, “Posts Archive” ?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there – Do you have a sample of what you are describing saved on a site page somewhere? If not, could you create one and send us the link to that page so we can take a closer look with you?

Hi there,
I’m afraid there’s no way to do this – the shortcode doesn’t offer an option to set a default value for the drop-down.

Ok. So is the only option to arrange title or instruction text near the drop-down? Also, as the dashes seem inelegant, is there perhaps a way to eliminate the dashes to just have the starting point blank?

Correct, yes.

No, this would require a structural type of change that cannot be made here.
