Can you provide more information.
What do you expect to see?
What do you actually see?
What XDebug errors do you get?

I've just completed this challenge and I can see that there is one piece of your code that needs to be adjusted to complete the challenge. I believe the error is with the line:
$options = get_option( 'my_plugin_username' );
The following contains the amendment in its entirety.
<?php
$options = array();
function my_plugin_options_page() {
if( !current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) ) {
wp_die( 'You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.' );
}
global $options;
if( isset( $_POST['my_plugin_hidden_field'] ) ) {
$my_plugin_username = esc_html( $_POST['my_plugin_username'] );
$options['my_plugin_username'] = $my_plugin_username;
$options['last_updated'] = time();
update_option( 'my_plugin_options', $options );
}
$options = get_option( 'my_plugin_options' );
if( $options != '' ) {
$my_plugin_username = $options['my_plugin_username'];
}
require('includes/page-wrapper.php');
}
?>
I hope this helps :D
