Settings reference

This page is rebuilt from the plugin schema on every npm run sync:settings-docs and docs build.

CoverKit Settings

• WordPress option: coverkit_options
• REST: GET/POST /wp/v2/settings → coverkit_options
• PHP: coverkit_option( 'field_key' ) (reads coverkit_options)
• Schema source: schemas/options.php

Plugin-wide options on Settings → CoverKit (or CoverKit → Settings when templates use the top-level menu).

Key	Label	Type	Default	Constraints	Description
image_format	Image Format	string	png	png, jpg, gif, webp	The format of the image.
menu_in_media	Show under Media menu	boolean	false	—	When enabled, CoverKit templates appear under Media instead of a top-level CoverKit menu. Reload wp-admin after saving for the menu to update.

CoverKit Presets

• WordPress option: coverkit_presets
• REST: GET/POST /wp/v2/settings → coverkit_presets (array of objects)
• Schema source: schemas/templates.php

Dimension presets offered when creating a new template (label + width × height). Stored as a list; editable on the settings screen.

Each preset object uses these fields:

Key	Label	Type	Default	Constraints	Description
label	Label	string	New Template	—	The label of the image.
width	Width	number	1200	min 1, max 10000	The width of the image.
height	Height	number	630	min 1, max 10000	The height of the image.

Default seeds on first activation come from schemas/default-presets.php.

Related storage (not on the settings screen)

These options are managed elsewhere; listed so you do not confuse them with the fields above.
