Subpage template: Set default

Kirby 2 Solved ✅
1

It’s cool that you can narrow subpage templates but as soon as you define more than 1 like:

pages: 
  template: 
    - post
    - special_post

the panel selector turns blank and you have to explicitly choose one – is there an uncodumented feature allowing for a default value on the page creation dialog?

No, there is nothing in the source code that would allow such a default setting. And since you cannot change the template from within the panel settings, an explicit choice is probably the better option, anyway, for the time being?

Hmm, maybe you’re right; I’ve put this in the panel issues nonetheless – for further reference.
