    I would like to have a default category that all posts that are added through WP Frontend will be added to as well as the options that are chosen from the multi-select box available to the authors. So in other words if a user selects for a post to be in admin, news, and events I would also like it to be automatically added to another category(“blog”). Is there any easy way to do it such as having the object selected and then hidden.

    @dopope0824, Please navigate to wp-admin > User Frontend > Forms > Edit a form > Post Settings. Now, select the category name for Default Post Category option.

    If users are not allowed to choose any category, this category will be used instead.

    Also, you can add category field to the form & make it optional so that if users not select any category then default category will be selected automatically.

    Thanks

    I would like them to still be able to select additional categories but need them by default to be added to another. Basically all posts added from front end need to be in one category and then the user selects the children categories.

    Is there any way in the optional category list to maybe add a class of selected=”selected” or the option=”4″ value to a list item and hide it or use the disabled option?
