Thanks for the replay. I have created a CCK field for User Reference. Right now it displays all possible users to select. I am trying to set the default selected user to the current user. I go to the content type I created and then select the field to configure. I have the option for a default value, it lets me select a specific user or I can enter php code to make this dynamic. So I would like to set the default selected item to be the current user. All the suggestions I've tried in previous replies all result in the following error when I submit the change to the custom field


The default value php code returned an incorrect value
Expected format :
array(
0 => array('uid' => value for uid),
// You'll usually want to stop here. Provide more values
// if you want your 'default value' to be multi-valued :
1 => array('uid' => value for uid),
2 => ...
);
Returned value :

Any help would be awesome because as you can see I have limited coding skills.

Thank you so much.

Global $user is an object, not an array, so the user id is $user->uid

Besides that, I can't say whether you need to return or to print
something. I am not sure what you are trying to do, what errors
exactly you are getting, or what doesn't work as it should.
