Customer checkbox control is checked when the default value is false.

[gandham]

If we set the default value of the setting as boolean false, not "false", checkbox on the customiser is checked.
If I set the default value to 0, it is working as expected.

Should a boolean false be treated as false?

Customiser saves the false value as 0 and true value as 1, when actually saving to the db.

@gandham Please provide a standalone plugin with code that demonstrates the issue you're having.

From your screenshot, I see you have “flase” (a mispelling). In PHP, if you try to use flase you'll get:

Notice: Use of undefined constant flase - assumed 'flase'

In other words, it converts flase into a string 'flase' and this would then be interpreted as boolean true, and result in the checkbox being checked.

This appears to be caused by the misspelling of false.
