We do provide such a box with our licenses, but we don´t want to present as a default one of thoses licenses. Users should make their choice "consciously". But a lot of them leave the box unchanged, that means, they do not choose any of presented licences.

My/our goal ist to "force" them to choose one licence, not accepting an empty dropbox line. And this, if possible, without changing the original software code.

So I am looking for an configuration option or, if there isn´t any (so I suspect) a hook to check the (non-)choice and reject this, leading user back to the upload form (with an explanatory error message).

Only if nothing helps - I would change SpecialUpload.php ...

I hope this made clearer what I meant.

Thank you!
