  3. How to change the content field widget type on my Blog extension plugin

I need to have blog post creation that does not use the Markdown widget for content input.

I want to use the RainLab Blog plugin and understand that I should not change the RainLab\Blog\Post\Models\fields.yml since updates will overwrite my changes.

So I have created an extension following the tutorial on User plugin extension at https://vimeo.com/108040919 but of course I'm extending the Blog plugin in my case.

In my plugin extension, I do not need new fields as you see in the tutorial. All I need to do is change the content widget from 'markdown' to 'richeditor'. I've looked through this page http://octobercms.com/docs/backend/forms, and tried to use filterForms in my new model. I'm not sure however, if that's what I'm supposed to be using.

Anyone had a similar problem with a solution?
