 * Hello,
 * I would like a category filter to load without default selected listing type 
   in a way that a visitor must select it first and then use it.
 * Any idea on how to do this?
 * BRG, Alen.

 * Hello [@asvigelj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/asvigelj/),
 * Thank you for reaching out!
 * By default the listing type and category load with default values automatically.
   It is nesseary to show the custom fields for them. Custom drop-down elements 
   display the Placeholder text ([Screenshot](http://joxi.ru/DrlWwd0uKoZL9A)) which
   was set in Listing type settings ([Screenshot](http://joxi.ru/Y2Ladw5fxPLKQA)).
 * Kind regards
    Eric Hardy

 * Thank you for your reply.
 * Can you tell me which event executes after clicking the “x” button next to the
   default selected listing type that clears the field and shows the placeholder
   text?
 * I would like to simulate it when the page loads so the field gets cleared automatically.
 * Best regards, Alen.
