Filter Admin Published Default

Enables all public post types (posts, pages, etc) in wp-admin to show the Published filter by default. This came out of a need as some clients of mine had a lot of pre-scheduled posts so a LOT of drafts are up top and I got tired of the extra click to filter by published. I tweeted out for ideas and @Norcross answered and quickly whipped up this; which we turned into a plugin for public release and here you go!
Usage
Once activated you don’t need to do anything.
Download & install the zip archive
The plugin package installer can be downloaded from the WP2E project tab called “code”.
1 – Select the version to download if this option is available otherwise the “latest” version of the main plugin will be used.
2 – After downloading the zip archive install the plugin package installer in you local environment and activate the script from the plugin list.
3 – Under the section “Plugins” of the admin dashboard you should see a new “Dependencies & Licenses” link. Follow the instructions from this panel to finalize the installation of the missing dependencies.
- Give a name to your project
- Download the Installer Package
- Install & activate the plugin locally
- Install the suggested dependencies
Tips: Use the WP2E panel to add/suggest new dependencies to the local installation. Press F5 in the list of dependencies if the changes are not displayed right away.
