 * Hi,
 * I noticed that Age Gate displays the label “Location” within the WordPress user
   dashboard instead of birthdate or something similar for this field.
 * When I use the %s in the form field on the messaging settings tab (under the 
   subheadline field), I get an error message which you can retrieve on my homepage.
 * Also, in the Age Gate User Registration settings, the plugin adds a / to my registration,
   
   account, and checkout messages. I tried to remove this from each field, but it
   reappears.
 * Thank you,
 * J

 * Hi [@ieremias](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ieremias/),
 * Sorry for a bit of a slow reply, been so many topics this week!
 * I think on the first one, you’d maybe added %s more than once? It only let’s 
   you do it one time. Maybe something I should look to improve.
 * For the other one, is that in the Admin or the main site?
 * Cheers
    Phil

 * Hi again [@ieremias](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ieremias/),
 * Just had a look at the docs for the placeholders, if you are using the age multiple
   times, rather that putting `%s` for the age, use `%1$s` and it should replace
   all of them
 * Thanks
    Phil
