What is the best way to store options for a select box in a database? I need to store all options in one single column field. Users will be allow to create there own custom dropdown options for a custom field and I am unsure on how to save all the options to build it dynamically from mysql with php. Any help will be appreciated.

You can store the select options in the database as JSON. To do this you would use
json_encode
on the options array, then store the value in your database.// an array of options $opts = array('An option', 'Another option', 'A third option'); // json encode the array for storage in the database $dbValue = json_encode($opts); // your code to save in the database goes here
To retrieve the options you would use
json_decode
to convert it back to an array of options.// your code to retrieve the value from the database goes here // json decode the array stored in the database $out = json_decode($dbValue); // output the select echo '<select>'; // loop through the options and output foreach ($out as $opt) { echo '<option>'.$opt.'</option>'; } echo '</select>';
