SilverStripe default content author permissions

The default value for Manage site configuration is off security > groups > content authors > permissions

enter image description here

Although it's possible to simply check the box and activate this, I would rather have this on by default for every SS installation.

How can the default value for this be set to on?

This should do as required, make an extension of Group and add a requireDefaultRecords function, this is called on every dev build.

This function is to look for that permission and if not existing create it...

class GroupExtension extends DataExtension {

    function requireDefaultRecords() {

        //get the content-authors group
        if ($group = Group::get()->filter('Code','content-authors')->first()) {

            //expected permission record content
            $arrPermissionData = array(
                'Arg'       => 0,
                'Type'      => 1,
                'Code'      => 'EDIT_SITECONFIG',
                'GroupID'   => $group->ID
            );

            //if the permission is not found, then create it
            if (!Permission::get()->filter($arrPermissionData)->first())
                Permission::create($arrPermissionData)->write();
        }
    }

}

As ever to register the extension add this to your config.yml...

Group:
  extensions:
    - GroupExtension
