 * Hi
 * Great plugin, is there a way to ask for the email address of the visitor submitting
   a post. We would like the email so we can email our visitor when the post has
   been put up live on the website.
 * Thanks

 * The fields are set but it would be possible to use, say, the URL field for emails.
   It would require custom coding however.

 * Have a look at `/views/submission-form.php`, locate both instances of “Your URL”(
   there are two), and change the text to “Whatever”. Good luck.
