default values not working

Any ideas why

mm_default('pagetitle', 'return "111111111";', '', '8' , true);

OR

mm_default('pagetitle', '111111111', '', '8');

are not working when I create a new document in a container.

Thank you

It doesn't work with that field. See the documentation that comes with it (assets/plugins/managermanager/docs/fields.html)

Thanks Susan,

Actually I wanted to do it for the alias but never expected not to work for pagetitle. It kind of makes sense why.

Anyway do you know any alternatives to defaulting aliases for a template to their IDs(except using a plugin)

Thanks again

In version 1.0.5 there's a Configuration setting to have it use the pagetitle (it will make it all lower-case and replace spaces with -)

That doesn't work in my case because some titles might be the same so I need to add the ID of the doc somehow.

Thanks
