In activity search the activity status items that are checked by default are are 'scheduled' and 'completed'. For my client I've added the activity status of 'Reported' which is now checked in activity search, as well as 'scheduled' - but 'completed' is no longer checked. There seems to be no way to have 'scheduled' unchecked. I can't figure out how these search defaults are set... as I'd like 'completed' to be the only one checked. Does anyone now how these status search fields are set?

Andy - defaults are set where the activity search form is built: CRM/Activity/BAO/Query.php - in 4.3 check line 513:

$form->setDefaults(array('activity_status[1]' => 1, 'activity_status[2]' => 1));

It's using the index of the checkbox elements which is why it's 'switched'. If you add another item to that array for completed, that should fix it.

That said - you might want to explore using the buildForm hook in a simple extension to do this so you're not hacking on a core file.
