       // This will keep track of the checkbox options for the validate_settings function.
       		$this->checkboxes = array();
       		$this->settings = array();
       		$this-><strong>get_settings();</strong>
       		$this->sections['header']        = __( 'Header' );
       		$this->sections['menu']        = __( 'Menu' );
       ```
   
 * And :
 *     ```
       register_settings() {
   
       		register_setting( 'mytheme_options', 'mytheme_options', array ( &$this, 'validate_settings' ) );
   
       		foreach ( $this->sections as $slug => $title ) {
       			if ( $slug == 'about' )
       				add_settings_section( $slug, $title, array( &$this, 'display_about_section' ), 'mytheme-options' );
       			else
       				add_settings_section( $slug, $title, array( &$this, 'display_section' ), 'mytheme-options' );
       		}
   
       		$this-><strong>get_settings();</strong>
   
       		foreach ( $this->settings as $id => $setting ) {
       			$setting['id'] = $id;
       			$this->create_setting( $setting );
       		}
   
       	}
