Extending oik-testimonials to satisfy your needs

To extend oik_testimonials you can add oik-types, which is dependendt upon oik-fields, then add any fields you like to the oik_testimonials post type. These will be displayed by the [bw_testimonials] shortcode when you use the _ (underscore) option of the format= parameter You don’t need to develop any code to do this.

Extending testimonials-widget to satisfy your needs

To extend the testimonials widget you can write code to hook into the multitide of filters it provides. You could consider adding oik-types and oik-fields to define new fields. But if you did that you may as well just use oik-testimonials. You know it makes sense!
