Hi,

when you add this param to the bool array:

'dataValue' => '0'

Then it is set to unpublished.

Result:

<?php echo JDom::_('html.form.input.bool', array(
												'dataKey' => 'publish',
												'dataObject' => $this->event,
												'aclAccess' => 'core.edit.state',
												'required' => true,
                                                                                                'dataValue' => '0'
												));
				?>

Yes, I see.

If you don't specify any default value, false is choosen. But I will fix this issue.

'dataValue' => '0'

Wrong. If you do this you will have problems to edit your element and see it to true when it is to true.

The defaulting is twice :

TODO : If you want to modify the defaulting :
In the table file, in the check() method.
In the item model, in the _initData() method.

The difference is that the check() method is the last fallback test (absolutly secure because always called)
_initData() is for prefilling the item in the forms. (when id=0)

Coding is now a piece of cake

Excellent Tool ! This tool will save you a lot of time writing the same old structure. I've used others but this is really nice for a quick start. Makes a 3 hour task a 15 minute one. Thanks for this extension
