Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.The default values are very useful, but I can't seem to change the order they're in. Also there doesn't seem to be a logic to the sort order of these fields. Changing them in 'manage fields' or 'manage display' settings of the nodetype doesn't change anything.
It would be nice if there was a way to determine the order of the default fields. Even better would be to just use 'manage fields' settings.

Dries ArnoldsOh and now that I think of it, it would also be convenient to be able to exclude some fields from default values.

adam_b CreditAttribution: adam_b commented+1 - I'm excluding some fields with CSS {display: none} but some interface for re-ordering/hiding them would be a help.

clemens.tolboomAttached patch adds the field group info. It looks ok but needs testers.

adam_b CreditAttribution: adam_b commentedTried the patch in #3 but it doesn't work with my fieldgroups.
Any field which isn't at the top level of the "Manage fields" interface doesn't appear on the screen - I've configured a tab structure which puts the fields a couple of levels below fieldgroups, so "Default Values" is blank.
See attached screenshots - the "Picture type" field was originally under "Media info", but I moved it up to the top level to make it appear in this instance.

clemens.tolboom@adam_b have you tried with just one level field group? I know @Pixelstyle has tested the patch from #3 which had iirc just one level.
Comment #6
adam_b CreditAttribution: adam_b commented@clemens.tolboom: sorry, it doesn't work for me. I set the fields as shown in the attachment (you'll see the original setup below), so Picture type and Caption should be visible in the BMU interface - but neither is. I cleared the cache, but that didn't make any difference.
