Every field on the new link starts pre-populated with the global default value. You can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Leave it as-is<\/strong> to use the default;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Override it on this link<\/strong> to use a custom value for this link.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Per-link overrides don't change the global default. You can have 50 splash links inheriting the default heading, plus 3 that override it with custom copy, and the global default is unchanged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-happens-when-you-change-a-default\"><a href=\"#what-happens-when-you-change-a-default\">What Happens When You Change a Default<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Changing a global default does <strong>nicht<\/strong> retroactively change existing splash links. If you change the default template from Modern to Minimal, every existing link keeps using whatever template it had at creation time \u2014 only links created <em>nach<\/em> the change pick up the new default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is intentional. It means changing defaults is safe \u2014 you won't accidentally break the look of every splash page you've built.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a5f883dec870&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a5f883dec870\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1312\" height=\"2156\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/prettylinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/splash-defaults.png\" alt=\"Pretty Links Options \u2014 Splash defaults with template customizer\" class=\"wp-image-18723\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prettylinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/splash-defaults.png 1312w, https:\/\/prettylinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/splash-defaults-183x300.png 183w, https:\/\/prettylinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/splash-defaults-623x1024.png 623w, https:\/\/prettylinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/splash-defaults-768x1262.png 768w, https:\/\/prettylinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/splash-defaults-30x50.png 30w, https:\/\/prettylinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/splash-defaults-935x1536.png 935w, https:\/\/prettylinks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/splash-defaults-1246x2048.png 1246w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1312px) 100vw, 1312px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"when-to-use-defaults\"><a href=\"#when-to-use-defaults\">When to Use Defaults<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Set up global defaults when:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You're standardizing splash pages across a content team.
