Hi,
I have a dropdown field where you can choose either red, green or blue. If no color has been selected, the field only shows a dash (-). I would like that if the user has not yet chosen a color, the field shows by default: "Nothing selected".
Can I do that with substitutions? If so, what do I have to write?
Thanks.

One way to do this is to just add a "None" option and mark the field required. Another is to use the Layout parameter to customize how it displays on profile. Specifically under Parameters > Layouts you can add an IF substitution to "Profile Value Layout" to condition how no value displays. Example as follows.
Replace FIELD_NAME with the actual name of your field. If you want to change the empty field indicator for all fields you can adjust the "Empty Field Text" parameter in CB > Configuration > User Profile.
