    i’ve tried to use a hidden field to set a post to a default category, but it didn’t work. can someone kindly tell me how this can be done?

    kind regards,

  • Go into your WordPress admin section under SETTINGS>WRITING and then you can set the default category there.

    i realize my mistake – i meant different categories for different post forms. I have multiple forms creating different Posts for different Cats. need to use Cats, not groups or roles.

    I solved this- here’s for anyone else with this issue:

    In each form, you can select a field for Taxonomy; you can choose Category, select a default Category, then under Advanced you can hide that field. Done.
