I'm having a problem with two classes working together

These are my classes


class calssOne {

    public function functionOne(){
         $myArray = array(
            array( 'std' => '' , 'type' => 'checkbox' , 'pre' => 'prefix_' , 'name' => 'theName' )
        );
        
        foreach($myArray as $value){
            $foreachArray = array( $value['pre'],$value['name'] => $value['std']);
        }
    }
}

class classTwo {
    public function functionTow() {
    
        $get_class = new calssOne();
        $myOptions = $get_class -> functionNameOne();
            
        if (isset($_POST['update_options'])) { 
            if (isset($_POST['theName'])) { // -------- foreach loop --------
                $myOptions['prefix_theName'] = apply_filters('prefix_theName_save_pre', $_POST['theName']);
            } 
        }
    }
}

That code works, but I want to make a foreach loop for the if statement with the comment.

Everything I try doesn't work.

Does anyone have any ideas for this?

That code shouldn't work....or at least it is written incorrectly

$myOptions never actually equals anything because functionNameOne doesn't return a value.

So

$myOptions = $get_class -> functionNameOne();

should probably be

$get_class -> functionNameOne();

or you should return a value from the functionNameOne, which I'm guessing would be the $foreachArray.

What do you want the foreach loop to do anyway. And is this for Wordpress? Because apply_filters() isn't a standard PHP function

Yes it is for a WordPress plugin, but I'm just trying to learn OOP. It's based off a this tutorial.

The exapmle I'm working off of is here. The person who wrote the tutrial doesn't explain why he used that method, but it does work.

Basically I want the foreach to do is loop this.

if (isset($_POST['theName'])) {
    $myOptions['prefix_theName'] = apply_filters('prefix_theName_save_pre', $_POST['theName']);
}

for each item in $myArray.

I removed the $myOptions var and it doesn't.
