[wp-hackers] Plugin options being cleared on save

[John Blackbourn]

Are you including the version number as a hidden field on the settings
screen so it gets saved with the other options? The entire contents of
the options field gets overwritten using the data that's submitted
(ie. it doesn't just update the array keys that are submitted).
