Topic: SELECT Placeholder without multiple attribute
I want to use data-mdb-placeholder on SELECT. It doesn't work without the multiple attribute.

Hi,
Try adding <option value="" hidden></option> as first option. Single Select displays first option (if it has value) by default instead of placeholder. But if you provide option without the value, the placeholder will be displayed. Here is the snippet: https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/standard/d-wajszczuk/3290625.
Keep coding,
Dawid
