  The contact form doesn’t give me all the responses. I’m trying to collect RSVPs for our wedding, and none of the “Guest 2” name fields are being sent back. This is how it looks in the code:

  [contact-field label='Guest 1' type='name' required='1'/]
  [contact-field label='Guest 1' type='select' required='1' options='Choose One,Going,Not Going'/]

  [contact-field label='Guest 2' type='text'/]
  [contact-field label='Guest 2' type='select' options='Choose One,Going,Not Going'/]

  I’ve also tried changing the form field to ‘name’, doesn’t work
  I’ve also tried changing it to required, and then required=0, neither of those worked.
  I’ve also tried creating a new form, also doesn’t work. Just gives me the same form.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  I’m sorry for the trouble with your contact form. It looks like the matching labels on the different fields in the form are causing trouble. You may want to try renaming those labels to something like this:

  [contact-field label='Guest 1' type='name' required='1'/]
  [contact-field label='Guest 1 Attendance' type='select' required='1' options='Choose One,Going,Not Going'/]
  [contact-field label='Guest 2' type='text'/]
  [contact-field label='Guest 2 Attendance' type='select' options='Choose One,Going,Not Going'/]

  I see that you’ve switched to using a Google Docs form on your site, instead, but if there’s anything more I can do to help just let me know.
