 * Hello,
 * In order to modify plugin content/display I found a way using the –
 * [Add Filter for Plugin](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_filter)
 * It says that snippet(as reqd.) needs to be added in the functions.php of the 
   theme. Now each them has a different functions.php and some overwrite it.
 * **Now where in theme functions.php does a add_filter code needs to be added?**
 * Appreciate some guidance as I am new to WP.
 * Thanks

 * There is no particular spot. It can go anywhere.
 * I would add it to the bottom of that file.
