How to set default value for text field and select field, if not yet been filled before?

I tried this, but when user already filled the value and click ‘edit ad’ in preview. It will return to default value instead of user’s filled value:
```
add_filter( "adverts_form_load", "default_value_adverts_location" );
function default_value_adverts_location( $form ) {

    if( $form['name'] != "advert" ) {
        return $form;
    }

    foreach( $form["field"] as $key => $field ) {
        if( in_array($field["name"], array( "adverts_location" ) ) ) {
            $form["field"][$key]["attr"] =  array(
                "value" => "Chicago",
            );

        }
    }

    return $form;

}
```
Update:
Maybe its not possible in php? Im thinking to add it via javascript instead. But how to only add script on “adverts_add” page?

Is there any function similar like is_search / is_archive in wpadverts? so we know which page we currently in.

You can set the default value with the adverts_form_bind filter


add_filter( "adverts_form_bind", function( $form ) {
    if( ! adverts_request( "adverts_location" ) ) {
        $form->set_value( "adverts_location", "Chicago" );
    }
    return $form;
} );
