Adds a new option for the current network.

Existing options will not be updated. Note that prior to 3.3 this wasn’t the case.

• add_network_option()

$option string Required

Name of the option to add. Expected to not be SQL-escaped.

$value mixed Required

Option value, can be anything. Expected to not be SQL-escaped.

bool True if the option was added, false otherwise.

This function essentially the same as add_option() but works network wide when using WP Multisite.

The only major difference is that on multisite site-wide options will not autoload and on a single site the option will autoload. Unlike when using add_option() on a single site, the feature cannot be overridden.
