 * Hi Nate, somewhere along the way with the updates i’ve noticed something differently.
   In the bookingmanager backend I’m used to see the message icon at the end when
   someone actually also sent an extra message. Now I see them with each reservation
   regardless the message is filled or not. This way we always have to open it… 
   What happened and how do I reverse this?

 * Hi Rob,
 * The the details icon will appear whenever there’s content for a column that’s
   not currently being displayed. You can customize which columns to display by 
   clicking the Columns button above the bookings list.
 * A recent update added a Submitted By column, which displays the date and IP address
   of the original request. If this isn’t being shown, it will cause a details icon
   to appear for every submission.
 * You can either show the message column by default, so you don’t need to click
   the icon, or make sure every column except the message is being shown, so the
   icon only appears when there’s a message.

 * Hahaha Wow, Nate I never played with this option. So now I also added the column
   submitted by and now there’s only an icon if someone also actually typed a message.
   Thanks again Nate for your fantastic support!
