What is the best way to go about setting up default values for a plugin? Should I just insert those values into the wp_options table?
AND...if that's the best way to go about it, I have another question. My options are listed as a group which currently looks like:
a:4:{s:26:"nc_location_drop_down_zoom";s:2:"14";s:17:"nc_location_width";s:3:"200";s:29:"nc_location_drop_down_maptype";s:7:"roadmap";s:11:"text_string";s:0:"";}
Is this a serialized array? How do I do an insert like this into the table? (I realized this is more of an sql question...)
get_option
will be sufficient in unserializing the data.
