CMS: Adding Default Values to Fields in Your Collections
1 min read
Add default values to collection fields that automatically get added to the fields when you add a new item. Later, if needed, you can edit the field values to change them from their default values. This is a great way to streamline content creation, ensure consistency and reduce errors in your CMS (Content Management System).
You can set default values for the following field types: Text, Image, Boolean, Number, Tags, Date, URL, Video, Audio, Address, Array, and Object.
Important:
Default field values are not applied to items added via input elements or the Wix app. The default fields only apply to items that you or site collaborators add within your CMS collections from desktop computers.
To add a default value:
- Go to CMS in your site's dashboard. Alternatively, you can click CMS in your editor.
- Click the relevant collection.
- Click Manage Fields.
- Click the field you want to add a default value to.
- Click the Default value tab.
- Enter the default value you want to use for the field.
- Click Save.
