Default settings for new page/article

Hello,

my problem is how to set some dafault settings for new pages or articles. For example all new articles shoud have enabled options "print this page" and "export to pdf".
Actually as default this options are disabled.
What can I do to change these settings?

Please try this in your system/config/dcaconfig.php

PHP Code:

---

<?php
$GLOBALS['TL_DCA']['tl_article']['fields']['printable']['default'] = array('print', 'pdf');

---

It's update safe.

Thank you, that work almost as I wanted.
Only problem is that these options are checked when I manually add new article but are unchecked when article is created automatically with new page.
I did not find 'printable' option for tl_page.
Do you have any solution?

Sorry, no solution for this. I opened a ticket https://github.com/contao/core/issues/8720

Maybe you will set this field to mandatory.

PHP Code:

---

$GLOBALS['TL_DCA']['tl_article']['fields']['printable']['eval']['mandatory'] = true; 


---

Or you will use a callback https://docs.contao.org/books/api/dca/reference.html

Hello,

as I saw on github there is no easy solution for this problem?
So I can expect that it won't be corrected soon?

Yes, you have to wait till it gets fixed.
