Allow for more “sources” when creating default values
-
When setting default values the “sources” options are limited to “current post” and “url query variable.”
Two other very useful sources would be:
1. Another form field. For example, I’m editing a CCT with a related single_post. I can set a hidden variable to that “cct_single_post_id” then, use that hidden variable to set defaults for taxonomy and terms fields that relate to the single post id. As of now, I have to pass both the cct_id and the single_post_id in through query vars – and that’s messy.
2. A shortcode. This explains itself, we could set it from any number of sources with custom coding.
