I created a custom widget, but it's not saving if I click on save. When I refresh the page it is not saved. My code looks like follows
<?php
/** * Plugin Name: Sending a
Contact SMS * Plugin URI:
http://www.test.co.za * Description:
Allows you to send a contact SMS to
website owner * Author: test *
Version: 1.0 * Author URI:

$control_ops = array( 'id_base' => 'smsForm-widget' );
$this->WP_Widget( 'smsForm-widget', 'Send SMS', $widget_ops, $control_ops); }
