get_blog_option() WordPress Function

The get_blog_option() function is used to get the value of a specific option for a given blog. The function takes two parameters: the option name and the blog ID. If the option does not exist, the function will return false.

get_blog_option( int $id, string $option, mixed $default = false ) #

Retrieve option value for a given blog id based on name of option.


Description

If the option does not exist or does not have a value, then the return value will be false. This is useful to check whether you need to install an option and is commonly used during installation of plugin options and to test whether upgrading is required.

If the option was serialized then it will be unserialized when it is returned.
