    sorry that should be if(isset…

    One thing to keep in mind, before the $new_values part, I think there should be an

    f(isset($_POST['footer-text']) {
    $new_values = array( ‘blah blah blah, );…. }

    because before I put that in, whenever I loded the page, it just wiped the options. I’m not sure if this is specific to my theme page or maybe it’s always like that. Just something to note ;)
