Adding an Options Panel
You can use the sb_register_settings() function to add your own options panel.
Removing an Options Panel
Use the sb_unregister_settings() function to remove a default option panel or sb_remove_default_settings() to remove ALL default option panels..
Creating Options
The Options API derives its real power from your ability to Create Options. There are loads of pre-defined option types at your disposal, ranging from an AJAX uploader to simple text boxes.
Use sb_register_option() and sb_unregister_option() to add or remove single options from existing metaboxes.
Interacting With Your Options
Because the options are all stored to a single array, StartBox has a few helper functions to make it easy for you interact with that data.
- sb_add_option() - Add option data to the database.
- sb_remove_option() - Remove option data from the database.
- sb_get_option() - Retrieve option data from the database.
- sb_update_option() - Update an existing option's data in the database.
