How to add default options

Question

I just want to add default 'Please select' with selectMonth(), selectRange() and selectYear() function

my code

<div class="col-md-1"> {!! Form::selectRange('day', 1, 31) !!}</div>
<div class="col-md-1"> {!! Form::selectMonth('month') !!}</div>
<div class="col-md-1">{!! Form::selectYear('year', 1950, 2015) !!}</div>

No way. Just do by yourself.

Form::select('day', ['' => 'Select day'] + array_combine(range(1, 31), range(1, 31)))
Form::select('month', array_merge(['' => 'Select month'], range(1, 12)))
Form::select('year', ['' => 'Select year'] + array_combine(range(1950, 2015), range(1950, 2015)))

But I think that's ugly. Why don't you use any datepicker plugin?https://jqueryui.com/datepicker/

Update:

$months = array(); 
foreach (range(1, 12) as $month) { 
    $months[$month] = strftime($format, mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, 1)); 
}

Form::select('month', array_merge(['' => 'Select month'], $months))
