==Change the phrase which the field is using== A much nicer but harder to find solution is to change the Unspecified phrase. '''Note''' it is a '''bad idea''' to change the <code>"lib/metafield:unspeficied"</code> phrase because this changes the Unspecified phrase for every field. Since it crops up in lots of places you can't easily predict where users will see the phrase. However there is a field specific "Unspecified" which you can set. For sets and namedsets this takes the form of a string <dataset>_fieldopt_<fieldname>_ <source lang="xml"> <epp:phrase id="eprint_fieldopt_course_information_course_code_">Please select...</epp:phrase> </source> Changes Unspecified for the eprint field course_information_cource_code to Please select... '''NOTE: Namedsets''' the above advice holds true for namedsets too - although their standard phrases are somewhat different to 'set' ones. A normal namedset phrase reference is of the form <namedset>_typename_<value>, but to change 'UNSPECIFIED' for these, you must still use <dataset>_fieldopt_<fieldname>_ e.g. <source lang="xml"> <!-- 'UNDEFINED' value --> <epp:phrase id="document_fieldopt_license_">No license</epp:phrase> <!-- 'normal' values --> <epp:phrase id="licenses_typename_cc_by_nd">Creative Commons Attribution No Derivatives (UK)</epp:phrase> <epp:phrase id="licenses_typename_cc_by">Creative Commons Attribution (UK)</epp:phrase> ... </source>
