[FLOW3-general] form.select and default item

[Pankaj Lele]

Hello Thomas,

> I'm trying to add an empty category item on my form.select. But like it was mentioned in this old topic, the

> which throws an exception.
> Any idea on how to fix that?

I generally fix this in the controller itself. So you can do following
in your controller->action()

$categories = $categoryRepository->findAll()->toArray();
$categories = array_merge(array(0 => ' Default category '), $categories);
$this->view->assign('categories', $categories);

Happy new year!
