The code below is what I created in a plugin that runs on both multi-site and single site installations. My plugin depends on the All in One Event Calendar and the recent upgrade locked calendar access for event creation and edits. This code may be placed in your theme’s function.php file if you are not using a custom plugin as I do.
/*******************************
* This checks if the ai1ec api settings are enabled, and
* if not calls the function to enable them. It was required
* due to Time.ly changes that turned off the options in
* an update unless an account was created.

$option_name = ‘ai1ec_api_settings’;
$options_array = array(
array (
‘option_name’ => ‘enabled’,
‘option_value’ => true
),
); // option array set ai1ec api to enabled
$wp_options_array = get_option($option_name);
if (!$wp_options_array[‘enabled’]) set_or_update_wp_options($option_name,$options_array);
//Set enabled only if it isn’t already set.
