IMO this should be fixed in DNN API code, not the database default value.

workaround:

UPDATE TABS SET SiteMapPriority = 0.5 WHERE TABID IN (SELECT TabID
FROM Tabs
WHERE (PortalID = 0) AND (SiteMapPriority = 0) and (IsSystem = 0))

Yes, it should

The Persona Bar is defaulting to 0 and I can reproduce in 9.3.0 RC2 too.

one more thing.
When adding multiple pages: the SiteMapPriority is set to the value of the parent page, if there is no parent page it is set to 0.5. I think this makes sense

This needs to be retested, I think I put the "pull request submitted" by mistake on this one, I cannot find that PR now...

Just had a minute to test and this is still an issue in 9.4.1

[Timo-Breumelhof]

Still an issue in 9.8.0

I can imagine that this is difficult to fix in API. If it is easier to fix it (at least temporarely) in the database, that would do. To explain the magnitude of the issue:
There have been several major projects where people did everything right (meta tags, content, Google search console etc) But everything was useless because the sitemappriority is 0. Even when it says 0.5 in the UI.
