title: How to change Default Screen Options in Wordpress
body: <p>I'm looking for a way to change the default screen options in the post editor.
  I want to hide certain options by default.  I am putting together a family recipe site and don't want to overwhelm users with too many options.  I don't want to log in as each user and changing their options manually.  I've combed through WP core files and theme files and can't find very many references to screen-options.  Is it defined somewhere in the database?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
