OOP Framework and update_options not working

Hi folks,

I’m using an OOP framework into which I’ve shoe-horned the code from a plugin I’ve built. Problem is, the framework offers a means of updating plugin options and although I’m successfully requesting a response from a third party API, I can’t update the option ‘status’ of my plugin. Any thoughts on where I’m going wrong?

Here is the update function:

private function _admin_options_update() {
        // Verify submission for processing using wp_nonce
        if( wp_verify_nonce( $_REQUEST['_wpnonce'], "{$this->namespace}-update-options" ) ) {
            $data = array();
            /**
             * Loop through each POSTed value and sanitize it to protect against malicious code. Please
             * note that rich text (or full HTML fields) should not be processed by this function and
             * dealt with directly.
             */
            foreach( $_POST['data'] as $key => $val ) {
                $data[$key] = $this->_sanitize( $val );
            }

            /**
             * Place your options processing and storage code here
             */

            // Update the options value with the data submitted
            update_option( $this->option_name, $data );

            // Redirect back to the options page with the message flag to show the saved message
            wp_safe_redirect( $_REQUEST['_wp_http_referer'] . '&update=1' );
            exit;
        }
    }

I’m trying to run this function:

update_option( $WPBackitup->options['status'], $license_data->license );
