 * Hello,
    I had installed a plugin (Post Views Counter) which created a custom 
   admin options page under “Settings”. I would like to extend plugin functionalities
   by adding stew more options to the options page already there. The “settings.
   php” file of the plugin use the add_action and admin_menu as a hook for adding
   the page options under “Settings”. Unfortunately, I cannot find out any other
   filter hook in that settings file. How can I do that (if possible)? I wanna add
   just two new option along with the original created by the plugin.
 * Thanks.
    Riccardo

 * [@r99photography](https://wordpress.org/support/users/r99photography/),
 * Do you wish to add Menu option or input field options in one of the Plugin’s 
   settings page?
 * If it is the latter, you can request the Plugin author, to modify, from the Plugin’s
   support [forum](https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-views-counter/). If you’re
   looking to create your custom menu page, then you can do so, by adding a menu
   page using [add_menu_page()](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_menu_page/)

 * It is an input field (option) to completely override (or not) html markup of 
   of shortcode.
    Ok, I guess it is not possible without asking the developer… Very
   good. Thank you.
