New challenges are by default closed

[Artmir]

Challenges by default are closed when published. No matter if the field's challenge status is set by default to either 'open' or 'closed'. This has no effect.

Strange.
@Artmir can you please specify which of the OpenideaL modules are activated?

[Artmir]

@zohar I believe it is the default installation (fresh install). whatever comes installed by default. Naturally I have added a few others to enhance security, and GDPR compliance, however they should not affect.
I noticed today morning that if an Administrator role adds challenges then the default 'open' setting works. But if an authenticated user role creates a challenge then it won't.

Zohar soon I will go live with the arcsar-innovation in the coming weeks, changing from Drupal 7 to 8. Let's see fingers crossed. :)
