Documentation

I was wondering if the plugin should be removing or not displaying events once they are past. If yes, how do I make this happen?

thanks,

mark

That’s the way it works (or at least the way it’s supposed to work).

If you use the [rsvpmaker_upcoming] shortcode, it displays only the future dates by default. If you display the calendar, it’s possible to click back to see events from an earlier month. The [event_listings format="headlines"] shortcode and the sidebar widget only show future dates.

Hi there,

This is a great plugin, and I’ve managed to get it configured to do exactly what I want/need without much effort.

The last problem I need to solve is that once users click the Submit button, they reach a 404 error page rather than the thank you page. This is due to the URL being constructed incorrectly:

http://my-site/?rsvpmaker=my-event?rsvp=9&e=my-email

If I change the second “?” to an “&” it works perfectly. Any tips on where to fix this bit of code?

Thanks
Alex

I think I found it. I’ve changed rsvpmaker-pluggable.php:286

from

header(‘Location: ‘.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'].’?rsvp=’.$rsvp_id.’&e=’.$rsvp["email"]);

to

header(‘Location: ‘.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'].’&rsvp=’.$rsvp_id.’&e=’.$rsvp["email"]);

This is pending testing within my site. Got some file permission issues which I’m waiting on the hosting support team to help out with.

The short answer is it would work better if you had permalinks turned on. It looks like you’re in the setup where regular posts would be ?p=123 — am I right.

Now, I thought I had some code in there to deal with this situation where permalinks aren’t turned on. I’ll have to go back and check, but meanwhile make sure you have the latest release from the repository. If you downloaded it within the last week, the answer is yes.

Oh, I see it’s the confirmation page that’s screwed up.

Instead of making changes in rsvpmaker-pluggable.php, look at the procedure for creating a rsvpmaker-custom.php file. Meanwhile, I’ll try to address this in the base code of the plugin.

Changing the RSVP Form, Other Customizations (advanced customization)

Yep – permalinks are the culprit. Judging by the documentation it looks like this is the culprit behind a lot of headaches!

Hi David,
just went thru the code because my setup requires proper “< ?php" openings, and replaced every "< ?=" by "< ?php echo " and every other "< ?" by "< ?php". Let me know if I should send you the files or you would like to change it yourself.
–Joachim

I’m in the process of making other changes, so I will add that to the list. Sorry, did not realize that feature was installation dependent.

This is fixed in the update I put out today.

Great! Furthermore I have an almost complete translation to German. Had to add some more msgids that currently are hard-coded and would be happy to share with you.

Terrific. I posted a version with the coding issue you identified corrected yesterday. If you can send me just the additional identifiers you coded for translation, plus the translation file to add, that would be great. If I try to avoid mucking around in the code for a few days, do you think you could retrofit your changes onto the existing files?

Are you trying the ChimpBlast plugin, BTW? I’m getting a bunch of little email notices from .de emails because I had stupidly hard coded my email address into some debugging code in the prototype version I’d posted to the website. The updated version available for download on rsvpmaker.com fixes that and makes some improvements. The official release to the WordPress repository will probably be this weekend.

Hi David,

I’m using WP 3.1 and have installed RSVPMaker (newest version in WP Plugins). But whatever I do, the content on the event’s page is blank… what am I missing here? Here is the link of that page: http://thewedding.tanapolis.com/?rsvpmaker=mnp
Please could you help me? Thx.

Mike

First of all, sorry to be slow to reply. Busy week.

Unfortunately, I can’t really figure out what is going on from looking at the public site. You should probably turn on permalinks, but I doubt that is the problem. It looks like you have the [rsvpmaker_upcoming] shortcode on a page but it’s not being recognized. Looks like the plugin is deactivated — do you see the event editing menu and the the settings screen when you log in?

Hello,
I’m looking for a way to translate the event date as it is displayed at the top of the RSVP form. I have no idea how to do it… Thanks for your help!

You’re pointing out a flaw in the design of the plugin that I hadn’t been aware of. The dates are currently formatted using the php date() function, and users can set the date format string on the RSVPMaker settings page. However, I see now that the documentation for php date states “To format dates in other languages, you should use the setlocale() and strftime() functions instead of date().”

So this is something I am going to have to address in the design of the plugin. I’ll try to do so fairly soon, so you should finish up your work independently, and we will try to get in synch.

Thank you very much for your concern! I have to admit that I made the translation without using the files you provided, because Poedit wouldn’t let me open it (non UTF8 compatible).
However, I have fulfilled most of the blanks left for translation, while editing the text manually in the phps. If you are interested, I can send it to you (for French)

I wish you had let me know about the Poedit issue – will try to figure out how to correct that. Then we can try to figure out how to integrate the work you have done.

WHen downloading an RSVP event, I get this message:

Warning: require_once(OLE/PPS/Root.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/dennis/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/rsvpmaker/excel/Workbook.php on line 39

am I missing something? I am running 1.9.2

Haven’t seen that error message, but I’ll try to check on that. The spreadsheet generator is a 3rd party library I just started bundling in with the plugin (a PEAR library that’s no longer maintained but works well for my purposes).

I do have those files in that directory and the case of the files does match. The attributes were 644, so I thought was it, so I changed it to 755 and just tried again but got the same message. Here is the complete message:

Warning: require_once(OLE/PPS/Root.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/dennis/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/rsvpmaker/excel/Workbook.php on line 39

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘OLE/PPS/Root.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/dennis/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/rsvpmaker/excel/Workbook.php on line 39

I am using the plugin for a big party and would like to translate it for those who would rather have the invitations in their own language. The English .po file is already provided, which I have partly translated by now. However, I cannot get WordPress to use my localised version for the plugin.

In rsvpmaker.php it is written:

if(($_GET["post_type"] == ‘rsvpmaker’) || ($post->post_type == ‘rsvpmaker’) || ($pagenow == ‘plugins.php’) )
{
//if we’re on the admin page for adding a new event, or are editing or viewing an event, or are on the plugins activation page
$locale = get_locale();
$mofile = WP_PLUGIN_DIR . ‘/rsvpmaker/translation/rsvpmaker-’ . $locale . ‘.mo’;
load_textdomain(‘rsvpmaker’,$mofile);
}

I therefore have put the translated file (called rsvpmaker-de_DE.mo) in the specified folder (../wordpress/wp-content/plugins/rsvpmaker/translation/), which – sadly – does not work.

My locale is defined in wp-config.php:

define (‘WPLANG’, ‘de_DE’);

So everything should be okay in theory, but I seem to be a little stumped.

Did anyone get a translation to work? I have read some things here about localisation, how did you do it? Maybe my .mo file is broken?

Ok, after several hours of trial and error, I have narrowed it down to one main reason: the conditional loading of the .mo file at the beginning of rsvpmaker.php. Somehow not all necessary posts are recognised and when I comment the section out where the plugin decides to load the .mo file, it works at least partly.

There are still numerous untranslated string left – if you need help with the translation into German, I am more than willing to aid you.

Oh, one more thing: When trying to download to Excel, nothing happens. Any idea, why? I tried installing the PEAR library manually, did not change anything.

Sorry for the delayed response. I’ve been tied up at work.

A few people have volunteered to create translations, but none have yet been completed. I’ve never been through this process before. I’ve tried to follow the best directions I could find, but since I’m not multilingual it’s hard for me to test the translation capability.

You said something about the conditional statement not firing in all the circumstances where this should be loaded, and I’ll try to check on that.

Also, you’re the second person to report that the download to Excel feature is not working. I need to figure out what the issue is there.

I just put out an update that removes that conditional statement around the loading of the text domain. Tell me if it works for you now. Also please try the download to Excel function.

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/rsvpmaker/

Please try the update I just put out and tell me if the download to Excel function works for you now. Looks like I missed a dependency in the PEAR library I’ve bundled in.

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/rsvpmaker/

As far as I can tell, it’s now set for UTF-8 if it wasn’t all along. Can you take another look?

I installed the update and retried the download and get the exact same message. Is there cache or anything I need to cleanup?

Please try downloading one more time – version 1.9.4

I made a mistake synchronizing with the wordpress.org plugin directory and the files I added weren’t included. I double checked that they made it in this time.

Sorry for the hassle.

The line numbers changed…

Warning: require_once(OLE/PPS.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/dennis/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/rsvpmaker/excel/OLE/PPS/Root.php on line 23

I may have to break down and use a different Excel writer library. Not as easy to redistribute this code as I had hoped.

Thanks for the great plugin David.

I think that I might have found a little bug with the “Show Attendees” button. The code for the button on line 1011 of rsvpmaker-plugabble.php uses site_url() to get the base url and I think it should be using home_url() instead?

I my case, my “WordPress address (URL) is in a sub-directory of the actual “Site address (URL)” (WP URL: http://www.example.com/new SITE URL: http://www.example.com) So the ajax call is using the WordPress url (site_url()) which generates http://www.example.com/new/?ajax_guest_lookup=## which fails, and it should be doing the call to the Site url (home_url()) which would generate http://www.example.com/?ajax_guest_lookup=##

I am thinking it is just because WP has poorly named these functions compared to the labels in the admin settings panel…

I really like your plugin and wanted to use it on a new site I’m building. However, it causes problems with the SimplePress theme I’m using. This is a theme we bought. When the plugin is activated, it causes information not to be displayed on the front page in the 3 columns under the feature slider area. When we deactivate it, all displays fine. The site is at http://timebankmedia.org if you want to see what I’m talking about.

Help
I can’t get an Event to keep unchecked: “Display attendee names and content of note field publicly Check to activate” I uncheck it, but when I save the page it refreshes checked.
I’ve also gone to the “Calendar Options” page and unchecked it there also. (I did check it for a while)
So when people go to the rsvp page it says: “Names of attendees will be displayed publicly, along with the contents of the notes field.” which I don’t want.

Well seems I can’t correct an old Event but if I make a New Event the check mark does not auto check.

Apologies for the glitch. I’ll check into that.

I’ll try to check on that. If I load SimplePress onto one of my sites, is yours a standard configuration of the theme? Any clues would be appreciated.

I’m a bit overloaded at work lately, so less time to devote to this non-paying work, but I’ll try to track it down.

I aslo cannot get events to keep unchecked “display attendee names and content of not field publicly check to activate”

every time i uncheck it and publish the post it rechecks itself

1. Another problem at: http://www.socialbuzznetwork.com/index.php/calendar/
When I try to submit I don’t get sent to a confirmation page (just spinning ball) but the rsvp is getting listed in the RSVP report.

2. Then I try to delete the report and it keeps reappearing.

3. On the page Setting>RSVPmaker what is the: RSVP On: check to turn on by default
checkboox for? It’s not clear.

I know it’s not helpful for me to say it works when I try it, but it works when I try it – meaning it works when I try it on my sites. I tried to rsvp on your site, and I did see that the confirmation message didn’t appear. Some conflict with your theme or other plugin? I can’t tell. Also not sure why you’re having trouble deleting entries. Works when I try it.

I can answer one question: you check the RSVP On checkbox on the settings page if you want to request RSVPs always or most of the time. The system also supports publishing events for which no RSVP is required. You can turn this on or off for each event, but if you turn it on in the settings, it will be checked by default when you create a new event.

Your RSVP did show up in the report.
Well I know I’ve had some problems with other plugins because of the permalink setup i.e. …/index.php/…

Is there a short code that can be used to list past events? Thanks

Not currently, but it’s a good idea. Will try to get it in the next release.

Feature Request: Specified list of people whom have to RSVP using a code or a Captcha on the form. I opened this up on my wedding site and got flooded with bots. I especially love the idea of allowing a user to specify their own list of users which reply to the RSVP by entering a code found on their invitation.

Just to add to this, I’m having the same issue with the report system, in case you needed to know about more folks with this issue.

I just noticed it is now in Root.php and before it was in workbook.php….maybe it is just one more change?

Hi, when I use the calendar to toggle months – I get kicked back to my default page … I can’t go forward or back …

Never Mind … It was the permalink thing again … I fixed by modifying my permalinks.

With the version 2.0 release I put out today, the function for downloading RSVP reports to Excel should be fixed, finally. I got rid of the PEAR module I had been trying to bundle in and instead added a more up to date library, PHPExcel.

Please give it a try and confirm that it works for you.

 Let’s do a Happy Dance!!!   It works.  Thanks Much.  Dennis

Took me a little while, but you can now do something like this in version 2.1

[event_listing past="1" format="headline" date_format="F jS, Y"]

Explained in a little more detail in my blog post on today’s release. 

If you update to version 2.2.1, it includes a CAPTCHA option. I can see where the other scenario you mentioned could be useful, and it’s something you could set up as a customization if you want. But maybe the CAPTCHA will help you fend off those bots, even though it’s a pretty simple one.

 Thank YOU!! I’ll give it a try.  Really love the plug-in Thanks!

I’m using Version 2.2.1 and cannot seem to un-toggle the CAPTCHA option on a post once I’ve set it. Tried to find it in the DB too, but not digging deep enough.

Love the new tweaks…

Hello, what about other languages, I working on mo and po files but can’t see  messages in my language… (file names pl_PL.po and pl_PL.mo)

if somebody use nationa character, I get i report:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /autoinstalator/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/rsvpmaker/rsvpmaker-plugabble.php on line 1210

Is there some way you can send me some sample data to look at? Maybe export the wp_rsvpmaker table to a CSV and email it to me at david@carrcommunications.com

David, was that you I heard on NPR today? I did not catch the whole thing but it sounded interesting. I’ll have to hear the podcast!

It might have been David (no middle initial) Carr of the New York Times. We sometimes get confused because he covers media, and I cover technology, and the two tend to overlap these days.

Try to use my name i RSVP form (e.g. copy paste this as first name, last name):

Jarosław Żeliński

Could you please tell me how to remove the comma from between the month and year in the calendar display? I apologize, I am new to HTML and WP, just starting out. But I do know something about punctuation and was horrified to find that comma there. Help!

Try the release I put out today, 2.3.2. I fixed a database encoding issue (Latin instead of UTF8). Worked with your name after I made that change.

The comma is gone in the latest release, so just upgrade to 2.3.2 (just uploaded, should be online within minutes).

how I can install this?

I found, ok.. 

national character working, but i fount this is in report:

YES Jarek Żeliński j.zelinski@it-consulting.pla:5:{s:5:”first”;s:5:”Jarek”;s:4:”last”;s:10:”Żeliński”;s:5:”email”;s:27:”j.zelinski@it-consulting.pl”;s:5:”phone”;s:0:”";s:9:”phonetype”;s:0:”";}Array ( [first] => Jarek [last] => Żeliński [email] => j.zelinski@it-consulting.pl [phone] => [phonetype] => ) first: Jareklast: Żelińskiemail: j.zelinski@it-consulting.plposted: July 10th

suggestion for a new feature :): action to  ask all participants for confirmation without using newsletter module, simple action: write a message and send it to each participant for confirmation with one link to click… maybe better is to make this automatically few days before the event (number of days  to configure for each event could be set by the owner).

in email confirmation I found bad national characters

Stupid of me, I forgot to remove some lines of debug code. I put out a fix, version 2.3.3

Can you forward me the email? When I was testing, I saw that the email had the right characters but the database record didn’t, which is part of how I figured out it was a database issue. But there may be other problems I haven’t caught yet

I put out yet another update that changes the email encoding on the emails to UTF-8. Let me know if that makes a difference.

I think I’ve finally got this working, if you can make time to take another look.

I was wondering if each event can notify a different person who may be responsible for the event?

Thanks,

Mark

Yes. You set a default on the Settings screen for the plugin, but you can also change it on a per-event basis.

I’m having an issue with the captcha.
The captcha url is ending up using the physical disk part way thru the path:

Any suggestions on where to adjust/fix/hack/alter anything?
thanks

I’ve never seen that before, so not sure why it’s happening. Looks like you’re running on a Windows-based web server? Possibly that’s tripping the script up somehow. I’m traveling on business, so may not be able to take a close look at this until the weekend.

Thank you.  Travel safe.  

If you can help; great; if not — I understand, being on a windoze host and allcheers

I need to create a menu for a bat mitzvah  site.
It will have two catagories for adults and other for kids.The adult catagory will have RSVP will or will not attend, name address, phone number, Email,
then will choo(16 and under) will have RSVP, name addreess and age.
And finally needs to be colated and printed out.
can this be done and how?
please let me know 

Thank you

Is there a way to suppress the display of “#signed up so far.”

Or to zero it out? (Even if I have to edit DB)

I really should have that as a checkbox option / preference. Meanwhile, you can hide it with CSS:
p.signed_up {display: none}

Unless you’re willing to do some programming-level customization, you’d probably have to ask people to put their menu choices in the notes field.

I do provide a way of customizing the form, but currently it changes the way the form works for all events. It might be good to have a way of specifying a custom form for an event, but making that a standard feature for the plugin would take some work. Not anything I’ll get to soon.

Hello David. I am trying about 3 evenings now to get the translation into dutch to work. Can I mail you my username password so you can login to take a look in rsvpmaker.php?

You can email david@carrcommunications.com. Where are you getting stuck?

I noticed today (after using the plugin for a few weeks) that after the date passes the events disappear from the calendar (grid) view.  I’d like them to stay…  can you point me in the right direction?

Hi David,
I’m trying your plugin right now as I’m planning to send out invitations for my granddaughter’s birthday.  Everything looks fine, except that my theme doesn’t display the First/Last name of the additional guests correctly, and I have no option (or at least I don’t know how) to change the width of the theme itself.  Besides, I would rather not ask for first/last names of the additional guests, but instead just ask the guest to indicate how many will come and how many are children.  Would that be a big challenge to add both options in the create event page? I mean, chose to ask for first/last name, yes or no and/or indicate how many are coming to the party and age or just children or not… Your response will be mostly appreciated as I will not try another plugin until I hear from you.  thank you.  BTW, if you want to see the problem of the width in my theme, just point to this temporary link: http://annabelleedwards.com/festa.  

I’ve looked at the RSVP form in several browsers, and it looks ok to me. I don’t really understand what the issue is you’re seeing.

There is a field on the RSVPMaker editor where you can enter instructions like “Please just enter the number of children and their first names in the note field” but I don’t have an easy way for you to hide the Guest blanks. Maybe that should be a checkbox option.

There are some instructions on this site for modifying the RSVP form, but it does require some coding. Sounds like it might be more than you’re up for.

Thank you, David.  The portion of the form that doesn’t look right is this one …

Funny, doesn’t look like that when I view it. Might be a particular OS/browser combination I haven’t taken into account.

You can neaten up the display a little by adding this to the style.css file for your theme or to the css file for rsvpmaker. This will make the input fields display on a separate line.div.guest_blank input {
display: block;
}

I keep getting page no found.  I checked the box in settings that instructed me to do so if I was getting this error.  No luck.  Please advise.

Is there a setting that will allow people to RSVP the day of the event?

Maybe someone can help me, the add guest function doesn’t seem to look right and it also does not seem to function properly. Check out http://www.josephandcharity.com/rsvpmaker/our-wedding-day?e=*|EMAIL|*#guest_section 

My thanks! 
Joseph

Hi. Thanks for the plugin. I must say I tried a few and, though yours’ is not the most full featured, it’s use is rather simple. I like that.

I have one question (to start with): how do you manage the date format, for instance, for non-English contries? I see it’s not in the .po language file. I know I can change the date display, but I can’t seem to be able to change things like month name, which is displayed in English (though my WP is powered in Portuguese). 

Joseph, I have the same problem and David already answered (see my post below).
The only problem is that I don’t know and I’m afraid to mess with the codes as suggested, so I’m still thinking about it.  Maybe I’ll try another plugin.

Hi Alvaro.  My page is also in portuguese and I have the same doubt.   Hopefully David will help us with that one.

Anything?

I let you customize the date format using PHP date format codes, which you can change on the settings screen. That allows you to change the order between month, day, year and day, month, year, for example. My understanding is that PHP should handle the localization for month names etc. if you have your server configured correctly. Possibly, I understand wrong, in which case I may need someone else to enlighten me on the right way to set this up for internationalization.

Good day. I am having problems using the RSVP button on the mail and on my site , get a return that states “it cant find what it is looking for”.I am new to WP ,but this plugin really seems great. http://www.wildhorsemcc.co.za  Email andre@wildhorsemcc.co.za
I would really appreciate help.
Thank you

Is there a way to showcase the form only (no button) on a single event? 

If you send visitors directly to the page for the event, it will be displayed without the button. If you’re asking something different, please clarify

Hi David

Thank you for resolving my issue. As exspected  it was a setting in wordpress . Thank you for your time.

Great plugin David!Is there anyway to combine shortcut codes? I need a event listing for a specified event type. Something like….[event_listing format="headline" type="featured"]as a hack I modified the output of [rsvpmaker_upcoming type="featured"] in rsvpmaker-display.php to only display the post title but I cant figure out how to add the event dates to the end.  This is what I have…http://masondixonclaybusters.com/members/ and this is what I would like it to look like except I would like to select by Event Typehttp://masondixonclaybusters.com/calendarevents/printable-schedule/ 

I hacked the date using <?php echo substr(get_the_excerpt(), 0, strpos(get_the_excerpt(), '’)-1);  ?> Not the correct way so I’m still looking for suggestions.

apparently the code example was change when posted… Also, I would like to change the number of events displayed before we get the “More Events” I believe the number is set to 10, I would like to change it to 20

http://masondixonclaybusters.com/members/

Still looking for a way to increase the number of events shown using the 
[rsvpmaker_upcoming type="featured"] shortcut from 10 to 20. 

Sorry, I am running behind on answering questions and requests on this site. I would like to put out an update soon, but need to find the time (just started a new job)

Thanks David, in the interim can you tell me where to change it in the code…line number? file? I can noddle my way around.

 never mind I found it!

Hi David.  Great plug-in!  I am a den leader/web developer for our local cub scout pack and was encouraged to see your example for scouting.  Had a couple questions that I couldn’t resolve on my own. 

1) Can you post a single event on the homepage by altering the short-code, rather than creating a list of upcoming events on the event page?

2) Is there a way to have the date of an event span days rather than a duration of 24 hrs?

Is there a way to send an email to the person who RSVPs? Doesn’t seem like one is sent.

Yes, there is an acknowledgement email. However, it sometimes gets caught in spam filters.

This is exactly the scenario I was thinking of, since I use RSVPMaker for my son’s cub scout group, and you often want to get a single RSVP response for a multi-day event such as a weekend campout.

Here’s what you do:

First, set the start date. Then click on the link that says “Add More Dates” — this displays several more rows of date selection drop-down choices. Put in the additional dates you want to include.

For a campout, I would also turn off the display of the time of day in the event listing. You do this by changing duration to “All day / do not show time in headline.”

Then in the body of the event, you put in the schedule details

Friday 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. check-in
Friday 9 p.m. baked beans and bad jokes
Friday 10 p.m. lights out
…
Sunday noon – Clean-up, Scouts Own, departure

Or something like that

Hi – I find this plugin SO useful – but I’m having trouble with the last name field. As I’m logged in, the field is auto-populated with my last name, in all caps (it’s entered that way in my profile.) If I just click “submit” without modifying anything, I get an “invalid input” error. If I change it so that only the first letter is capitalized, it usually takes the submission – but sometimes crashes the page (“HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was attempting to fulfill the request.) Anything to be done about this? I really, really need this plugin (what I was looking for is something like Doodle for WordPress, and this is a fair start.)

Thanks!

Hi David,
Is it possible to rename the link “/rsvpmaker/” to something else? Regards,Joe

No, that’s tied to the custom post type in WordPress, which has to be unique. You could hack the core code of the plugin, but then you wouldn’t be able to apply updates I put out (not without some hassle)

I think the issue you’re running into is something to do with your browser retaining form input field data.

I could be wrong. RSVPMaker does try to do a lookup based on your prior RSVPs to events, keyed to email address. But that normally only kicks in if you follow a link that’s encoded with a query string that includes your email address.

I haven’t seen anything like the glitch you’re reporting.

When I click on the RSVP Now! button, I am getting the following URL, which is reported as “The webpage cannot be found”.

http://mywebsite/?rsvpmaker=web-team-meeting?e=*|EMAIL|*#rsvpnow

If I remove “?e=*|EMAIL|*#rsvpnow”   from the URL, it will work just fine.

I am just now trying your plug-in, which looks VERY nice – except for the RSVP button!!   Please advise!

Hello, I am loving this plugin. Can you help me figure out why the RSVP Now button is not working. I am getting a 404 error when I click on it. You can view the site via this link:

Hello,
I absolutely love this plugin, but am having trouble removing the “guest sectin” and “note section” on my rsvp form.  Is there a simple way to do this?  Thanks!
