Is there a way to set announcement in the category by default for roles who are allowed to announce?

Thanks!

    How should announcements look like?
    Look at Bump plugin to move a discussion to the top.
    Look at PrefixDiscussion to mark it in a specific visible way.
    Both have permissions you can assign to specific roles.

    make a plugin load the script only on new discussion page.

    add this function to a basic plugin you create

    public function PostController_Render_Before($Sender) {

if (Gdn::Session()->CheckPermission('Vanilla.Discussions.Announce')) {
$Sender->AddJsFile('ann-cat.js', 'plugins/nameofyourplugin');
}
}

    add this file to js folder in your plugin

    you could try jquery

        jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    `$('#Form_Announce1').prop('checked',true);`
    });

    I may not provide the completed solution you might desire, but I do try to provide honest suggestions to help you solve your issue.

    this will restrict to new discussions (and not edit).

    $('#vanilla_post_discussion #Form_Announce1').prop('checked',true);
