 * Hi,
 * I hope you are having a good day
 * Love using this plugin works as expected easy to use shortcode and works like
   a charm, however just wanted to know if it is easy to add new field? like Phone,
   City, Zip and Address or something like that, can you give me light? or maybe
   hint file where I can edit this myself? I experience a bit in WordPress plugin
   but you know developer have different code and taste and I don’t want to ruin
   the running plugin.
 * Hope to hear you soon
 * Thanks

 * Hi ryscript,
 * Adding the input fields to the form wouldn’t be too difficult. Within rich-reviews.
   php you can edit the shortcode_reviews_form function to add these fields. If 
   you read the through the function and are familiar with PHP then this shouldn’t
   be too difficult. Of course if you have trouble then I will happily help you 
   out with it.
 * Then you must edit the database to store the new data. For this you must edit
   the create_update_database function within the rich-reviews-db.php file. Adding
   the columns in proper mysql format is very important. After that, you call this
   function if the columns that you want to include don’t exist.
 * Lastly you must figure out how you would like to retrieve this information and
   what information you would like to display. This is going to be mostly custom
   coding on your part, with the exception of editing the display_review function
   in rich-reviews.php which you must edit for the fields that you would like publicly
   displayed. I believe that the most simple way for you to view this information
   without publicly displaying it publicly would be to edit the display_admin_review
   function.
 * With all of that said, I am going to highly recommend that you do not customize
   your version of the plugin. If you do, then you won’t be able to update the plugin
   without overriding your customizations, at which point you will have to redo 
   everything that I previously have said. Alternatively, you could choose to no
   longer update the plugin in order to maintain your customization. This could 
   cause issues if a new version is released with crucial updates and you risk losing
   complete functionality.
 * I hope this was helpful. If you have anymore questions then feel free to email
   us at [plugins@nuancedmedia.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/additional-field/plugins@nuancedmedia.com?output_format=md)
   and we will respond as soon as possible. Thank you for using our plugin and hopefully
   this works out for you.
