Hi Malaga,

Thank you for contacting us and I'll be happy to assist.

As mentioned in the documentation, the "wpv-control-post-relationship" shortcode, doesn't support any "placeholder" attribute:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views-shortcodes/#vf-521622

To include an empty default select option in that select field, you can use a custom script, as suggested in this thread:

I hope this helps and for more personalized assistance around custom code, you can consider hiring a professional from our list of recommended contractors:

my workaround was a reset button. but it would be nice to have a placeholder to 'choose all'. just not worth custom scripting. thanks!
