Parameters
| Name | Type | Default | Set | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $name | ID_TEXT | required parameter | N/A | N/A | The name of the value |
| $default | ?ID_TEXT | Null | N/A | N/A | Value to return if value not found (null: return null) |
| $elective_or_lengthy | boolean | False | N/A | N/A | Whether this value is an elective/lengthy one. Use this for getting & setting if you don't want it to be loaded up in advance for every page view (in bulk alongside other values), or if the value may be more than 255 characters. Performance trade-off: frequently used values should not be elective, infrequently used values should be elective. |
| $env_also | boolean | False | N/A | N/A | Whether to also check server environmental variables. Only use if $elective_or_lengthy is set to false |
Return
- The value (null: value not found and default is null)
