Describe the bug
When I choose Create content type option on a markdown file with properties I'd like to use for a new content type, I get the option to Do you want to override the default content type?

This implies that the default Content Type definition will be preserved and just overridden in this case and more options will follow.

I don't want a random file with a misspelled property being the culprit of messing with the default content type.

To Reproduce
Probably by design...

Expected behavior

  • Change the question to Do you want to replace the default content type?

As it is an override of the fields used in the default content type, maybe it is better to use: Do you want to override the default content type with the fields used in the current field?. What do you think?

The configuration in the frontmatter.json for default is changed.

So I would say the default content type is over written and not over ridden.

Good point!

Do you want to overwrite the default content type configuration with the fields used in the current field?
