Set [‘#default_value’] of taxonomy time period reference area by way of hook_form_alter()?

Here is a unique query with Drupal Developer identical taxonomy time period reference area I discussed in my earlier query.

Customers with Administrator and Coach roles are granted permission to register Scholar customers by way of a customized "Add scholar" kind mode (user_add_student_form). It will be higher for UX if I may set Drupal Developer ['#default_value'] of Drupal Developer select_a_school taxonomy time period reference area to Drupal Developer identical college that Drupal Developer at present logged in consumer belongs to.

I am working with hook_form_alter() in template preprocess as a result of that is how Drupal Developer earlier developer set it up:

/**  * Implements hook_form_alter().  */ perform projectname_form_alter(&$kind, &$form_state, $form_id) {   // Get Drupal Developer present Person.   $current_user_proxy = Drupal::currentUser();   $current_user_id = $current_user_proxy->id();   if (!$current_user_proxy->isAnonymous()) {     $currentUser = Person::load($current_user_id);     // Get Drupal Developer present Person's college.     $currentSchool = $currentUser->field_select_a_school->getValue();     // Deal with Add Scholar kind.     if ($form_id == 'user_add_student_form') {       // This works.       $kind['account']['roles']['#access'] = FALSE;       $kind['account']['roles']['#default_value'] = [         0 => 'authenticated',         1 => 'student',       ];       // This doesn't work.       $kind['field_select_a_school']['#default_value'] = $currentSchool;     }

Setting $kind['account']['roles']['#default_value'] works as anticipated, however Drupal Developer taxonomy time period reference area resists all such makes an attempt.

I’ve tried Drupal Developer following variations:

      $kind['field_select_a_school']['#default_value'] = $currentSchool;       $kind['field_select_a_school']['#default_value'][] = $currentSchool;       $kind['field_select_a_school']['widget']['#default_value'] = $currentSchool;       $kind['field_select_a_school']['widget']['#default_value'][] = $currentSchool;       dump($currentSchool);

Drupal Developer Symfony VarDumper dump() of $currentSchool appears to be like prefer it accommodates Drupal Developer right knowledge construction:

^ array:1 [▼   0 => array:1 [▼     "target_id" => "916"   ] ]

Right here, for reference, is Drupal Developer corresponding dump() for Drupal Developer goal area in $kind:

  "field_select_a_school" => array:8 [▼     "#type" => "container"     "#parents" => array:1 [▶]     "#attributes" => array:1 [▶]     "widget" => array:22 [▼       "#title" => "Select A School*"       "#description" => ""       "#field_parents" => []       "#required" => true       "#delta" => 0       "#weight" => 0       "#element_validate" => array:1 [▶]       "#key_column" => "target_id"       "#kind" => "choose"       "#choices" => array:47 [▶]       "#default_value" => []       "#a number of" => false       "#shs" => array:7 [▶]       "#attributes" => array:1 [▶]       "#connected" => array:1 [▶]       "#entity_type" => "consumer"       "#bundle" => "consumer"       "#after_build" => array:1 [▶]       "#field_name" => "field_select_a_school"       "#mother and father" => array:1 [▶]       "#tree" => true       "#form_id" => "user_add_student_form"     ]     "#entry" => true     "#weight" => 22     "#cache" => array:3 [▶]     "#form_id" => "user_add_student_form"   ]

It doesn’t matter what I strive, $kind['field_select_a_school']['widget']['#default_value'] at all times finally ends up containing an empty array. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

What am I lacking right here?
