Field Default Values

The Field Default Values module allows administrators to configure default values for various field types, ensuring consistency and reducing manual input when creating new fields.

Key Features

Automatic Default Values – Applies predefined values to newly created fields.
Supports Multiple Field Types – Works with text, number, link fields, and more.
Admin Configuration – Easily manage settings via a dedicated admin page.
Seamless Integration – Hooks into the field configuration system for smooth workflows.

Why Use This Module?

Saves time by reducing manual configuration.
Ensures consistency across entity types.
Provides a simple and intuitive UI for setting defaults.

How It Works?

The module integrates directly with Drupal's field system. When creating a new field, the configured default values are automatically applied if the option is enabled.

Administrators can define default values per field type.
When a new field is added, the default values are pre-filled.
The default values can still be manually adjusted if needed during field creation.

Installation & Configuration

Install via composer (composer require drupal/set_field_defaults) or manually place in the /modules/custom directory.
Enable the module from the Extend page (/admin/modules).
Configure settings under Configuration → System → Field Default Values (/admin/config/field-defaults).
