Default post category
Hello,
I noticed that some of my users are posting in wrong categories because when they start a new discussion on the main page this field is pre populated.
How can I have set a blank selection option so that in the event that they rush into posting the forum alerts them to select a category?
This is the functionality seen in vanillaforums.org.
Thanks,

Hello, where should add this?
You could add it via a plugin, your theme hooks file, or by modifying your default.master.tpl file.
Even better, you could search the forums for your answer.
