Please read the documentation:

You can put whatever you want in the email templates. Go to the settings, then the email settings tab, and edit the templates for the various emails to say exactly what you want, and add/remove the template tags for what you want to show.It’s been a while, but I’m working on a big update to the main/free plugin and added a timestamp column to the signups database, which will be shown in a “Signup Time” column on the admin side views. The values will be shown as the date followed by the time, with date and time in the format that you set in your WordPress general settings page.
This will be in version 4.6, which I will hopefully release sometime in the next week.
This will be in the new 4.6.0 release, along with several other new features, that should be released this coming week.
I know your request was a couple of years ago, but have been doing a bit of reworking and adding some requested features, and this was a fairly easy feature to add.
Thanks for your support!I have at least one client that I just did a custom extension for, and they are willing to pay a relatively small amount to subsidize development of a waitlist extension. If you are interested in contributing to the development, let me know. I may start on that fairly soon. Anyone who contributes gets a lifetime license.
The new version of the Custom Fields extension now has layout blocks where you can add HTML in various locations within the signup form template. There are several fixed locations for the default signup form, plus you can also select a position after any custom field that you add. So, this would allow you to add hr fields to the signup form to break up sections. Check out the documentation for more information.
Although it doesn’t cover all your feature requests, I did release version 2.0 of the Custom Fields extension that adds a “Hide From Public” checkbox for each custom field. This would address your needs of having some fields that are for admin use only and would be visible to the admin only and also can be used in the reports/exports, but never visible to the public.

My plugin has nothing to do with staging mode vs. live mode. That’s completely dependent on how your staging system is set up. Usually when you say “staging” that means a site that is a clone of the live site where you can test things out without it affecting anything on the live site. Then, if everything works on the staging site after all the changes, you push those changes back to the live site to update the database and code on the live site. Again, my plugin has absolutely nothing to do with that. If you are using some plugin to create a “staging” mode, and it doesn’t copy all the database table changes back over to the live site when you switch to “live” mode, then that’s not the fault of my plugin.
The most common form of staging is done via server software that the hosting company provides and has nothing to do with wordpress directly… it simply creates a clone of all your files and your database, and it doesn’t care what software you are running on that site (WordPress, or anything else).The problem remains, where do you specify the empty row, and how do you specify after what entry that row should appear? Again, the custom fields extension adds columns (not rows), and even the Customizer extension only allows you to specify which columns are shown. The plugin has no way of knowing which signups should be shown together with a separator after them.
If it was some kind of fixed setting, such as insert an empty row after every third row, then that could possibly be done. However, you can do that right now with custom CSS that targets your tables. Look up some standard CSS for tables and lists and how to use the ‘nth’ type operator, or the ‘even’ or ‘odd’ operators, to specify how to change the styling for some of the rows (as long as they fall into a repeating pattern such as even, odd, or every ‘nth’ row). I think some custom CSS is probably your best bet right now if there is a pattern to where you want some kind of styling to separate entries. If there is no pattern, however, then it pretty much becomes impossible unless we do some major code changes to somehow allow people to specify which signups belong together as they are signing up.
