Redux::set_field( 'OPT_NAME', 'SECTION_ID', array(
    'type' => 'text'
) );

# Example Usage

This example is based on the example usage provided above. Be sure to change $redux_demo to the value you specified in your opt_name argument.

// Using the Redux API
echo Redux::get_option( 'OPT_NAME', 'FIELD_ID', 'DEFAULT_VALUE' );

// Using the global argment
global $redux_demo; // Same as your opt_name
echo $redux_demo['FIELD_ID'];

# Using the data Argument Manually

This argument serves two purposes with the text field. First, it works like any other data argument. Meaning it can populate the field with WordPress data. Second, it allows a user to pass a single array or a multidimensional array to output a number of text fields.

TAKE NOTE

The "value" portion of the data array will also be set as the default value if the field has no value stored. The key portion will become the ID by which it is stored under the field ID.

USING WITH the placeholder Arg

When defined with an array, the placeholder argument can also be used as long as the IDs match between the data and placeholder arrays.

# Simple Array

Redux::set_field( 'OPT_NAME', 'SECTION_ID', array( 
    'id' => 'FIELD_ID',
    'type' => 'text',
    'data' => array(
        'box1',
        'box2',
    )
) );

Example Output

array(
    'box1',
    'box2'
)

# Multi-Dimensional Array

Redux::set_field( 'OPT_NAME', 'SECTION_ID', array( 
    'id' => 'FIELD_ID',
    'type' => 'text',
    'data' => array(
        'box1' => 'Box 1 Title',
        'box2' => 'Box 2 Title',
    )
) );

Example Output

array(
    'box1' => 'Box 1 Title',
    'box2' => 'Box 2 Title' 
)
