I see it now — I had assumed that you could set the default in the controller function, but it seems that it has to be in the model file. Thank you for your help on this issue.
Still, though…I would like to know how to edit the variables submitted by the form, and still unsure how to do that. For example, if a staff member were to post their Inkbunny link, I would want to force that link’s explicit field to true, but by default they provide the choice of marking it as explicit content or not.
