 * not sure when it happened, but all my guest data is removed (i only have one 
   event so far). I did do an update to the event, is there a checkbox that i overlooked
   that deletes data on update that i missed? I don’t see one now. Or could the 
   plugin update 2 weeks ago have cleared the guest tables? using Database Manager–
   WP Adminer I can see that the tables are in fact empty, but the event is still
   there
   additionally, and maybe related, using RSVP Reports, list all contacts,
   and adding a entry, save does not add an entry, no error, just the data goes 
   away.

 * RSVP report also isn’t showing my event. RSVP Event does, and the public page
   is visible
   edit: never mind, it shows after filling out the normal rsvp form.
   and now I see that the entry goes in the wp_rsvpmaker table, which only has this
   one new entry and nothing else

 * Sorry for the slow response — I’m writing to you from a cruise ship, so a bit
   distracted.
 * Do I understand that the issue is resolved or is it not? There are some functions
   in RSVPMaker for deleting data (test entries, for example), but it shouldn’t 
   be easier to trigger them unintentionally. Are you still at the stage of doing
   initial testing, or did you have live registrations recorded that you were worried
   about losing the data on?
 * The custom table wp_rsvpmaker_event (prefix may be customized to something other
   than wp_) is just for the date, time, and timezone information. Sounds like you
   already figured out that wp_rsvpmaker is where the actual registration information
   is recorded. The RSVPMaker Report screens only shows the dates for which registrations
   have been recorded.
 * If there’s something else I need to clarify or help you debug, let me know.

 * it was not anyone clicking the delete data features, i did see those and they
   are not easy to misuse. I wasn’t even logged in to the site most of the time.
   
   this was for a small personal event, and I was using the google sheets report
   option and had email logging turned on for my email gateway so I had a copy of
   all but 2, and I had a record of those 2 people. not catastrophic, but could 
   have been was I not using the Sheets script.I do not have any explanation of 
   how it could have happened, so in that sense it’s not resolved. Could something
   have gone wrong in the auto-update, and would there be a log of that?
