Theme Option Activation

Step 01: Download Latest Option tree from wordpress and extract it. Place the Folder 'Option Tree' in the theme directory.
Step 02: Keep 'meta-boxes.php' & 'theme-options.php' in the inc folder of your theme.
Step 03: Activate the Theme Option by putting the following code in functions.php

// add_filter( 'ot_show_pages', '__return_false' );
add_filter( 'ot_show_new_layout', '__return_false' );
add_filter( 'ot_theme_mode', '__return_true' );
include_once( 'option-tree/ot-loader.php' );
include_once('inc/meta-boxes.php');
include_once('inc/theme-options.php');

Since we commented out  add_filter( 'ot_show_pages', '__return_false' );by using //, we can see the option tree in the admin area. If we want to hide it, just delete these //.


Step 04: Create your own 'section' & 'settings' in following way:

'sections'        => array(

      array(
        'id'          => 'header_settings',
        'title'       => __( 'Header Settings', 'theme-text-domain' )
      ),
      array(
        'id'          => 'footer_settings',
        'title'       => __( 'footer Settings', 'theme-text-domain' )
      ),
      array(
        'id'          => 'social_settings',
        'title'       => __( 'Social Media Settings', 'theme-text-domain' )
      )
    ),
    'settings'        => array(
        array(
            'id' => 'copyright',
            'label' => 'Copyright',
            'desc' => 'Enter Copyright Information',
            'std' => 'Copyright 2012 Andia - All rights reserved. Template by Azmind.',
            'type' => 'textarea',
            'section' => 'footer_settings',
            ),

        array(
            'id' => 'address',
            'label' => 'Address',
            'desc' => 'Enter Address Information',
            'std' => 'Via Principe Amedeo 9, 10100, Torino, TO, Italy',
            'type' => 'text',
            'section' => 'footer_settings',
            ),
    )
  );

Step 05: Call the variable you created in theme-options.php by using the following code:
                    <div class="widget span3">
                        <h4>Contact Us</h4>
                    <?php
                        $address = ot_get_option('address');
                        $phone = ot_get_option('phone');
                        $skype = ot_get_option('skype');
                        $email = ot_get_option('email');
                    ?>
                        <?php if($address): ?>
                        <p><i class="icon-map-marker"></i> Address: <?php echo $address; ?></p>
                        <?php else : ?>
                        <p><i class="icon-map-marker"></i> Address: Sarasota, CA, USA</p>
                        <?php endif; ?>
                        <p><i class="icon-envelope-alt"></i> Email: <a href="mailto:"><?php echo $email; ?></a></p>
                    </div>
