How do I set a radio button default value?

What, if any, is the process for setting the default radio button selected within the admin:

Choices:
physical : Physical
digital : Digital
both : Both

Default: Both

Thanks.

Never mind, that worked that time.

This seems to be spotty – anyone had experience with this? It worked, and then it quit.

Help!

That did not solve my issue!!!

Can someone please weigh in on this?

Thanks

Hi @MacGregor

Can you elaborate on what your previous solution was? Did you use the default value option for the radio field?

The default value is only loaded on a new post, not for any posts that already exist. Perhaps this is the issue

That was the issue, or at least part of it.

I had all the posts already created when I add the radio button to my order_block ACF group and for some reason, it just stopped passing the value: thought maybe it was naming (product_category); thought it was because all the posts already existed…

As soon as I changed it to a checkbox, everything came back, so I’m not really sure what’s going on.

Thanks for the quick response and great plugin! Nice parallax btw!
