Hi there, Thanks for this plugin. We are using another plugin to automatically export
and import orders into another system. In this plugin we have the capability to 
select certain ‘meta fields’, however we do not know what exact meta name / meta
key your plugin uses. Could you please tell us? Thanks in advance

No mess, no fuss, straight-forward plugin. Was up and running in around 10 minutes.
It’s great that we can now ascertain how people found our site when going through
the checkout process. Awesome stuff! 🙂

Great simple plugin, does exactly what it says, nothin more, no extra fluff. More
plugins should be like this.

### 󠀁[Great plugin, needs one small fix](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-needs-one-small-fix/)󠁿

 [gavie](https://profiles.wordpress.org/gavie/) Oktober 24, 2023

Great plugin, works fine. One suggestion: Currently the line “Other” is not translated
in the dropdown-menu (only in the field label).. To fix: on wc-customer-source.php,
line 589, please change the text-domain from woocommerce-admin to woocommerce, and
it will work flawlessly.

Works fine. A little more in terms of formatting/design would be great (spacing /
alignment on my pages isn’t great).
