 * Hi,
    I took advantage of the guide: [http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/wordpress/how-to-create-a-better-wordpress-options-panel/](http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/wordpress/how-to-create-a-better-wordpress-options-panel/)
 * Everything works, but these settings appear on the blog.
 * In my **functions.php** file:
 *     ```
       array( "name" => "Footer admin mail",
       	"desc" => "E-mail admina.",
       	"id" => $shortname."_footer_mail",
       	"type" => "text",
       	"std" => ""),
       ```
   
 * and in the **footer.php** file:
 *     ```
       <form action="<?php echo stripslashes(get_option('bl_footer_mail')); ?>" id="contactForm" method="post">
       ```
   
 * Why **bl_footer_mail** is not displayed?
    Even in the loop, anywhere.
 * Please help.

 * And where are you storing bl_footer_mail in the wp_options table?
