# Setting Default Options for New Posts

For blog systems that support options such as post status, text filtering and comments, you can configure default settings that MarsEdit will use when creating a new post.

1. Select a blog from the blogs list in the main window.
2. Choose the Blog > Edit Settings… menu item.
3. Click the Editing tab within the blog settings section.
4. Select the desired default settings.

New posts will be pre-configured with the specified default settings, but you can also change settings on a per-post basis.
