How to change default Display Settings for Article Publishing

Thu 8 Jan '15, 10:23pm

This was really annoying me, so I hacked away at it until I figured it out... not sure if this belongs on .org instead of here, but figured more people would search here first (as I did).

You need to edit the template: contententry_panel_articleoptions

Find "display_settings" in this template once you have it open... then replace sections of the template as follows depending on the settings you want

Note the changes to the vb:if condition sections as well as the vb:set checked sections:

Enable Comments

Default to Yes

HTML Code:

                <div class="l-row l-row__fixed--left h-padding-bottom-l">
                    <div class="l-col__fixed-3 l-col__small--full h-padding-right-m">
                        <label class="b-form-input__label">{vb:phrase enable_comments}</label>
                    </div>
                    <div class="l-col__flex-3 l-col__small--full">
                        <vb:if condition="$editPost AND !$conversation['allow_post']">
                            {vb:set checked, 'no'}
                        <vb:else />
                            {vb:set checked, 'yes'}
                        </vb:if>
                        {vb:template toggle_slider, name='allow_post', checked={vb:raw checked}}
                    </div>
