saving options issue with 2.7

    I’m having trouble migrating my plugin to 2.7 – an issue with options where it’ll show the options page but upon hitting save says “Error! Options page not found.”

    I decided to try a very simple example first to isolate the problem, and it’s still happening. Could someone take a look at this and tell me what I’m doing wrong options-wise? Would greatly appreciate it…and I’ll post later as a generic example for others to use too. The plugin dev docs are kind of fragmented so it’s hard to pull together something without looking at about 10 pages…

    <?php
/*
Plugin Name: Test
Plugin URI: https://URI_Of_Page_Describing_Plugin_and_Updates
Description: A brief description of the Plugin.
Version: The Plugin's Version Number, e.g.: 1.0
Author: Name Of The Plugin Author
Author URI: https://URI_Of_The_Plugin_Author
*/

function my_plugin_activate() {
	add_option("test", "12345");
	register_setting('test-options', 'test');
}

function my_plugin_menu() {
  add_options_page('My Plugin Options', 'My Plugin', 8, __FILE__, 'my_plugin_options');
}

function my_plugin_options() {
	register_setting('test-options', 'test');
?>
	<div class="wrap">
	<h2>Plugin name</h2>
	<form method="post" action="options.php">
	<?php wp_nonce_field('update-options'); ?>
	<table class="form-table">
	<tr valign="top">
	<th scope="row">New Option Name</th>
	<td><input type="text" name="test" value="<?php echo get_option('test'); ?>" /></td></tr>
	</table>
	<?php settings_fields('test-options'); ?>
	<p class="submit">
	<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Save changes" />
	</p>
	</form>
	</div>
<?php
}

add_action('admin_menu', 'my_plugin_menu');
register_activation_hook( __FILE__, 'my_plugin_activate' );
?>

    Thanks to this blog post I figured it out.

    Here’s the modified and working code:

    <?php
