Add default content checklist items to all custom post types

[stevejburge]

I concur that this one is very dependent on the particular website PP is
being used on. And I understand that by default, most of the checklist
items might not be relevant to completely unknown CPT the user might have.
But for us, most of the post types are all valid types of pretty much the
same kind of content with different visualizations. Therefore I wanted to
have the default Content Checklist items for all the custom post types.

The attached patch does that in a pretty uncool (read unsafe) manner, but it does the job for
me. If you were to implement it better, I think this belongs either as a UI
option in the admin panel, or *better yet *as a filter that collects the
CPT the user wants the default checklist items to be accessible for.

Note: this patch is for the *Content Checklist *addon, not for PP itseld.

Thanks to @jorr for the report and patch

@stevejburge @andergmartins should I rework this as a PR?

@jorr please, add a pull request 👍
Tks for the help.

@andergmartins on a second thought, I think a filter that allows users to add CPTs for each content checklist item might be a better idea, or do you think that's too much?

Hi @jorr we have a filter available for that: publishpress_checklists_post_types.
Our plugin uses it to populate the list of post types using the following criteria:

• post: always
• pages: always
• all post types queried using _builtin = false and public = true.

But you should be able to inject your own post types using that filter. Just make sure to use a priority higher than 10.
