 * We have been using Events made easy for our online registration for years. It
   has always worked well and did what we needed. This year we switched forms of
   payment and I was able to update everything after I copied the old registration
   form to use the new payment method. (switched from Paypal to Stripe).
    I wanted
   to change the way we accepted donations on the registration form and add selection
   to add a donation to the form so that it would add into the total. We are using#
   _SEATS in the shortcodes for other registration selections and thought I could
   just add another “Seat” shortcode. Everything I have done has created an error
   message. I have copy and pasted changing the seat number and wording, I have 
   typed it in making sure I follow the code style and still an error code. What
   am I missing? Or is there a different code I can use to create a field to select
   or insert a donation amount to add to the registration total so the attendee 
   can pay for them both in one transaction. Thank you for your help.

 * Just create a custom form field and set the option “Extra cost”. Then use that
   form field in your rsvp form. See: [http://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/category/documentation/7-placeholders/7-6-registration-form-fields/](http://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/category/documentation/7-placeholders/7-6-registration-form-fields/)
