I'm updating a option page for my theme to use settings_fields and post to options.php
The code works and the option is save to the wp_options table, but I do not get a confirmation message back.
Example: <div id="message" class="updated">Setting Saved</div>
Here is the code:
function swc_form_init ()
{
register_setting('swc_form_options', 'swc_theme_color_selection', );
}
add_action('admin_init','swc_form_init');
// theme color options
function swc_theme_color_page() {
?>
<div class="wrap"><?php screen_icon(); ?>
<h2>Theme Color</h2>
<form action="options.php" method="post" id="swc-theme-color-form">
<?php settings_fields('swc_form_options'); ?>
<h3><label for="swc_theme_color_selection">Enter you color option</label>
<input type="text" id="swc_theme_color_selection" name="swc_theme_color_selection" value="<?php echo esc_attr(get_option('swc_theme_color_selection')); ?>" /></h3>
<p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Save Selection" /></p>
</form>
</div>
Try:
<div class="wrap"><?php screen_icon(); ?>
<h2>Theme Color</h2>
<?php if ( false !== $_REQUEST['updated'] ) : ?>
<div class="updated fade"><p><strong><?php _e( 'Your theme options have been saved',); ?></strong></p></div>
<?php endif; ?>

Thanks esmi,
I made a slight change once I notice the returning url sends a "updated=true" in the string.
here is the code that worked for me:
<div class="wrap"><?php screen_icon(); ?>
<h2>Theme Color</h2
<?php if (isset($_GET['updated']) && ($_GET['updated'] == 'true') ) : ?>
<div class="updated fade"><p><strong><?php _e('Your theme options have been saved'); ?></strong></p></div>
<?php endif; ?>
I guess what threw me for a loop, was the fact that if I write this as plugin and not theme option page (the same code) returns a saved message.
thanks again for the coding tip!
I used different codes then above to create a custom page for my theme. It works fine, saves data in wp-options table at Database and shows confirm msg as well.
PROBLEM:
When i call (echo) the text contents into the page, it shows blank.
Can anyone help me pls?
