Hidden

Hidden field for internal schema data.

Helperpu_hidden()
Typehidden
Stored valuemixed scalar

Example​

pu_hidden('schema_version', ['default' => '1']);

Stored value​

Pressundo stores this field as mixed scalar. Composite fields keep structured arrays rather than opaque CSS strings, so your application can reuse individual values.

Important arguments​

Common field arguments: label, description, default, required, show_if, hide_if.

All normal fields can also use conditional visibility:

'show_if' => ['enabled' => true],

Behavior​

  • The same schema renders in Air, Slate and Compact.
  • Sanitization runs before validation/storage.
  • Hidden conditional fields keep their stored value unless your application explicitly changes it.
  • Output escaping remains contextual and should be applied where the value is rendered on the front end.

Notes​

The field is sanitized and validated through the central field-value processor before normal admin saves.

Reading the value​

$options = pu_options('theme_settings');
$value = $options->get('example_value', null);

Use the actual field ID from your schema instead of example_value.
