5.2.0 - Custom Fields - DefaultValue not working

Description:

Custom fileds DefaultValue not shown (I did post there on a previous version : https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/issues/27034

Steps to reproduce:

Account --> Register --> Custom Fields

Add the page example :

{ "role": { "type": "select", "defaultValue": "student", "options": ["teacher", "student"], "required": true, "modifyRecordField": { "array": true, "field": "roles" } }, "twitter": { "type": "text", "required": true, "minLength": 2, "maxLength": 10 } }

Expected behavior:

See student as default

Actual behavior:

See teacher as default (the first entry)

Server Setup Information:

• Version of Rocket.Chat Server: 5.2.0
• Operating System:
• Deployment Method: docker
• Number of Running Instances: 1
• DB Replicaset Oplog:
• NodeJS Version: 14.19.3
• MongoDB Version: 4.4.15

Client Setup Information

• Desktop App or Browser Version: chromium
• Operating System: ubuntu

Start at Account → Register → Custom Fields and reproduce the example configuration from the issue in Rocket.Chat 5.2.0. Trace how the select field chooses its initial value and compare defaultValue with the options order. Done means the registration form shows “student” as the default rather than the first option, with the behavior covered by an appropriate test.
