How do I have a placeholder on a select input with multiple options using bootstrap-select? The usual way of having the first option selected does not work as additional selected options are added to it.

<select class="selectpicker" multiple>
<option value="" disabled selected hidden>Type</option>
<option value="">Type 1</option>
<option value="">Type 2</option>
<option value="">Type 3</option>
<option value="">Type 4</option>
</select>
There is a similar question but the solution does not work for a select multiple box.
It's with the title
attribute.
