Description
Getting to like patching ;-)
Small patch which gets the default values for thing like promoted, sticky, published, comments, revision, receipt and priority from settings pages. Might not be ideal for all situations, but I would prefer it to the hard coded situation before.
Thanks
Mark

I'm not sure this is a good idea. The default newsletter should have its own distinct settings from the default settings. These should be set on the default newsletter settings page.

Ah sorry, maybe I didn't make myself clear (and the code btw)
Comments, published, promoted, sticky and revision are taken from:
/admin/content/types/simplenews
the default newsletter settings pages
Priority and receipt are taken from:
admin/content/newsletters/settings
The newsletter settings pages

Well, what if I want the digest newsletter to be unpublished and all the other newsletters to be published by default? I could do it but I'd be forced to change the published setting every time I created a newsletter manually.
It would be better if I had a section on the digest newsletter page where I could set these default settings for the special digest newsletter.

Also, at some point I want to allow multiple digest newsletters. Then it will be even more important to allow each digest newsletter to have its own settings.

Hi Steve,
Agreed, It should be on the page. Will check what I can do about that later.
Would be, btw, more then willing to help to make multiple newsletters possible.
Do I hear a 5.2 branch?

I was planning on doing a d6 version first.
One thing to be aware of is that the d5 simplenews module has (or had) a problem with sending multiple newsletters at the same time.
