About Append Content
From the official readme · v2.1.1Description
Ever wanted to add a snippet of text below the content of your posts/pages?
Maybe you re-purpose blog posts as press releases and need a standard EOE statement. Maybe you just want to be able to drop a sales pitch or call to action at the end of all your blog posts.
Now you can. Choose to append your snippet to just posts, just pages, or all. You can also turn off the feature on your blog post listings on your home page or your front (content) page.
