Adding a Default Tag

All Topics → → Adding a Default Tag

I’d like to create a form that generates a post.  Any post created using this form would always have the exact same tag assigned to it.  This wouldn’t be a value that the user would input, but rather would be applied automatically.  I’ve experimented with custom fields, tags, etc., but cannot get this to work.  Any ideas?

This is basically a three-step process.

1. you need to make sure the "tag" that you want added as the default is added in your WordPress post tags page (screenshot 1)

2. Go to your "Create Posts" settings found on your form settings page. Under "Taxonomies/Categories" Click "add" and "populate a new field" with taxonomies from "Post Tag"(Screenshot 2)

3. Go back to your form builder page and find your newly created "tag" field. Select the tag you want to be the default and set the field to admin only. (Screenshot 3)

The end result should be a tags field added to your form that only an admin can see/change with the default selection of whatever your default tag needs to be. When the form is submitted, the default tag should be added to your post.
