User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate the RSVPMaker plugin for its ease of installation, robust functionality, and the support provided by the developer, David. The plugin's form builder offers customizable options that many other RSVP plugins lack, making it versatile and user-friendly for organizing events. Additionally, it allows guests to change their RSVPs, a feature often absent in similar plugins. Users also find it helpful for managing large volumes of RSVPs, especially for community and team events, reducing the need for cumbersome email lists. However, there are some noted drawbacks. The plugin's admin interface could be improved, as it can be somewhat complex to navigate. Importantly, the RSVP security is questionable since only an email address is required to make changes, which could be exploited. Furthermore, there's an occasional glitch and the initial error message "The plugin does not have a valid header" that some users encounter upon activation.

I was successful in installing the plugin, but when I activated it, I got this error “The plugin does not have a valid header”. I wonder what causes the issue here?

We only needed some VERY basic functionality which is oddly hard to find in the other RSVP plugins I tried. Most of the other had hard coded requirements that I couldn’t find a way around. RSVPMaker’s form builder was exactly what we needed. It take s a little bit to navigate because of all of the features and options, but it can do a lot.

I tried several premium and free plugins but this seems to be doing the job very nicely. However, the admin flow and design has to be changed a bit. I can help with the design part of admin section.
