Settings

CoverKit stores site-wide configuration in WordPress Settings → CoverKit. When templates use the top-level CoverKit menu, the same screen is also linked as CoverKit → Settings.

Changes save through the WordPress REST Settings API (/wp/v2/settings) and require the manage_options capability.

What you can configure

Area	What it controls
Settings reference	Every field on the settings screen: output format, admin menu placement, and new-template dimension presets.
Use cases	Per-template social previews, featured images, sidebar preview, and other outputs—not on this screen.
Caching	Generated image cache on disk; cleared from templates or when presets change.

For developers

• Field definitions live in schemas/options.php and schemas/templates.php.
• Read a single option in PHP: coverkit_option( 'image_format' ).
• After changing schemas, run npm run sync:settings-docs (or any docs build) so the reference page stays in sync.
