I am creating forms to define parameters for channels, and I’d like for each form to have the category preselected. Is it possible to do that? Would I use a hidden field? Special coding? Any help’s appreciated, thanks.

Hidden fields should work.


{categories}
  <input type=“hidden” value=”{category_id}”  />
{/categories}

You can hardcode the value, or use the categories loop like I did above.

When you say hardcode the value, do you mean like value=“8”, for example? That doesn’t select the category. I’m having trouble figuring what I’m missing.
Thanks.

Never mind. Got it.
