Null option for Select Field

->options([
    null => 'Standard',
    14 => 'Every 2 Weeks',
    30 => 'Every 30 Days',
    60 => 'Every 60 Days',
    90 => 'Every 90 Days',
    'Never' => 'Never',
])
->options([
    null => 'Standard',
    14 => 'Every 2 Weeks',
    30 => 'Every 30 Days',
    60 => 'Every 60 Days',
    90 => 'Every 90 Days',
    'Never' => 'Never',
])
Works fine for saving, but Standard is not preselected on Edit if the value equals null. Suggestions for solving this?

null as array key is converted to empty string in php unfortunately maybe use ->placeholder('Standard')

exactly right no need for a null option at all

A null option is needed to set it to null though too

why the placeholder option sets it to null

Figured the placeholder did nothing. Okie dokie. Thanks!

is the placeholder intended to set the option to null when ->relationship() is used for the options? for a record that has already been saved, selecting the placeholder doesn't appear to provide null, it just provides the last saved value.
