    How can I set the default value for the Article Extension? It’s an unnecessary extra step to have to change it manually each time we make a new post.

    Hi there!

    I’m working on it 🙂

    1. Filter wise: https://github.com/sybrew/the-seo-framework/issues/298.
    2. Option wise, I still need to create an abstract and dynamic options page for all extensions to hook into; this requires a lot of planning.

    The idea is that the options page will allow you to select the enabled post types, and thereafter the default Articles type for each post type.

    I tried this filter, but it’s not re-ordering?

    
add_filter( 'the_seo_framework_articles_post_type_support', function( array $types = [] ) {

	// Reorders "post" default selection. The first is auto-selected.
	$types['post'] = [ 'BlogPosting', 'Article', 'NewsArticle' ];

	return $types;
} );

    Hello again 🙂

    My apologies for the confusion. The filter was a proposal, and it’s not implemented.

    I forgot I implemented another filter.

    You’d want to use that filter, instead. This is assuming you want BlogPosting by default:

    add_filter( 'the_seo_framework_articles_default_meta', function( $defaults ) {
	$defaults['type'] = 'BlogPosting';
	return $defaults;
} );

    The filter above will work for all new posts. It’ll also affect all old posts where you haven’t saved the metadata since activating the extensions.

    I hope this helps! Cheers 🙂
