How to make "Show published date" default as "TRUE" right now it is "FALSE" in modern News Creation

[Awake Kapoor]

Hi All,

I have a requirement to make the "Show published date" default to "TRUE" right now it is "FALSE" when i create a new News page in modern site.

See the screenshot below, can we do it OOB or using some PowerShell or by any custom way ?

Hi @Awake Kapoor 

there is no way, but you can create some page models and says users to start from a page model instead create an empty page.
