How to add recommended entry types to new entry?

Help

When adding a new entry, the dialog offers some entry types as recommended. Is it possible to edit this list? How? I use a lot @WWW type and could be nice to have it in the recommended list (and removing @Misc that I don’t use).
Thanks!

Hi,

this is currently not possible. The list is hard coded in JabRef. But could be a possible thing for the preferences in the future to define a list of common entry types

This is disappointing. I regularly add entry types that are not recommended that require an extra click to expand those second-class entries. Where can I best contribute a vote toward resolving this or regressing to the old, better, behavior?

@Joel_Kulesza The best thing would be to create an issue at our github tracker, suggestion for improvement. Best is to include a screenshot as well.
We are currently having several students working at JabRef and I think this would be good issue for them. The solution would probably to make it configurable in the preferences somewhere.
