WP_Customize_Control::value() WordPress Method

The WP_Customize_Control::value() method is used to retrieve the value of a customizer setting for a given control. This value is then used to update the control's UI when the setting is changed. This method is useful for creating customizer controls that need to display data from other sources, such as the WordPress database. By using the WP_Customize_Control::value() method, you can ensure that your control always displays the most up-to-date data.

WP_Customize_Control::value( string $setting_key = 'default' ) #

	final public function value( $setting_key = 'default' ) {
		if ( isset( $this->settings[ $setting_key ] ) ) {
			return $this->settings[ $setting_key ]->value();
		}
	}
