 * IN REGISTER PLUS, (GREAT PLUGIN!) I’M TRYING TO CREATE A CUSTOM FIELD FOR THE
   REG-CONFIRMATION EMAIL MESSAGE NEW REGISTRANTS RECEIVE.
 * HERE’S BASICALLY WHAT I PUT IN THE USER MESSAGE WINDOW IN REG PLUS
    ~~~~~~~~~
   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Your username is: %user_login% THIS WORKS
   FINE Your password is: %user_pass% THIS WORKS FINE
 * Your age is: %descriptive_fieldlabel_here% PROBLEM
 * To finish registering, click this link: %siteurl% THIS WORKS FINE
    ~~~~~~~~~~
   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 * HERE’S BASICALLY THE EMAIL MESSAGE THE USER RECEIVES
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Your username is: MarySmith Your password is: UserzPassword
 * Your age is: descriptive_fieldlabel_here
 * To finish registering, click this link: THIS WORKS FINE
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 * SO, I HOPE THAT SHOWS THE PROBLEM: THE MESSAGE THE USER GETS DISPLAYS THE TEXT
   BETWEEN THE TWO %s. ISN’T IT SUPPOSED TO DISPLAY THE TEXT THE USER PUTS IN THE
   CUSTOM FIELD ON THE REG FORM? AS IT DOES WITH THE USERNAME AND PASSWORD?
 * HERE’S BASICALLY WHAT I DID WITH THE CUSTOM FIELD SECTION OF REG PLUS:
 * Custom Field, Extra Options field #1: descriptive_fieldlabel_here
    Custom Field,
   Extra Options field #2: How old are you? Drop-down = Text Field Add Registration
   Field = Checkmarked
 * WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

 * Please forgive the use of upper case. It’s to distinguish my words of this question
   from the examples of the problem.
