Sure, open up the file functions.php in your theme folder and add the following code:
function my_default_post($content)
{
if (empty($content))
$content = "Your default text";
return $content;
}
add_filter('the_editor_content', 'my_default_post');
Obviously you want to change the “Your Default Text” to whatever text you want, but you get the idea.
You could also add this code to your wp-config.php, then it will work for any theme you use. I don’t suggest adding stuff like this to the config but at it will work. If you want, I can turn this into a plugin later, but not sure how many other people would want it.
Any other features a plugin like this would need?
I add my thanks, that was something I really needed, thanks a lot 🙂
