HOW DO I: install a default value for a custom field?

[ataraxia]

Is there some way to set a default value for a custom field?

For example, can I set things up so that, say, my homepage URL will appear in customfield[homepage] when someone submits a new link (yet will allow them to change it to something else if they want)??

Can this be done in a template or will it require a hack? How?

thanks

Anyone have any ideas on this yet? (Thanks!)

Don't know if it solves anything but It might help.
On a similar problem, I edited the field in the db (using phpMyAdmin) to set a default value instead of empty (NULL).

(just saw this link) Or you can try a variation of this:
