 * Hi David,
 * People we’re checking out without making a selection in the dropdown.
    So they
   were cheking out with only the shipment cost as I combined the address country
   with the shipment amount.
 * In shortcodes.php on line 722 I have changed the next line:
    `$html .= '<option
   value="' . __( 'Select an amount', 'paytium' ) . '" selected>' . __( 'Select 
   an amount', 'paytium' ) . '</option>';` to an empty value: `$html .= '<option
   value="" selected>' . __( 'Select an amount', 'paytium' ) . '</option>';`
 * Otherwise the first text option “select an amount” would validate as a value.
   
   Also I added required as option in <select> like: `' . $required . '`
 * Please let me know your thought on this.
 * Greetings,
 * Maurits

 * Hi Maurits
 * good call! This isn’t possible in 1.5 because it doesn’t support adding-up amounts,
   but I’ll register an issue in my tracker and fix it for the stable 2.0 release!
 * Kind regards
    David

 * Hi Maurits
 * Some things changed since you posted this. Could you email the form you use to
   [david@paytium.nl](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dropdown-required/david@paytium.nl?output_format=md),
   so I can use that for testing your situation and the change?
 * Kind regards
    David
