 * I’m looking to make some more fields to the guest beyone first and last name 
   and was wondering how i might be able to do this.
 * I can change the labels for first and last name, but I was looking to add more
   than just those two. Thanks!

 * Okay I’m actually moving along pretty well, My stumbling block is that I want
   to use a drop down menu. It saves, but it doesn’t display right after saving 
   as a dropdown.
 * What I’ve done:
    Added a new field to the rsvpmaker table Added a new esc_attr(
   $_POST for my new field modified pluggable lines 1207 and 2012

 * Not having attempted that customization, it’s difficult for me to advise you.
 * The one piece of specific advice I have for you is to avoid making changes to
   the core plugin files and instead use the technique outlined here to overrride
   a pluggable function

 * That will make it easier to maintain compatibility of your customizations with
   future releases of rsvpmaker.
