{% hint style="info" %}
If you do not want to provide the fields parameter, you can define the default fields in the options of the Lewe Jira Connector in the WordPress back-end.

If you provide the fields parameter, none of the default fields will be shown. In that case you need to specify all the fields you want to see.
{% endhint %}

## Custom Fields

Custom fields can be added to your jql= parameter in the format of:

`cf{{1234}}`

The above example is translated by the Lewe Jira Connector into `cf[1234]` which is the correct JQL format.

In the fields= parameter you must use the format `customfield_1234` to add the column to the output.

Jira only delivers back the value of your custom field, not its name in your Jira instance. If you want your column to have a speaking name, you can add on via the headers= parameter.

Let's say you have a custom field "Customer" in your Jira instance with ID 1234. The following shortcode would display the field with a proper column header:

{% code overflow="wrap" %}
```
[jco-filter host="398" jql="project=ADMIN AND resolution=unresolved AND cf{{1234}} = ACME" fields="issuetype,priority,key,summary,status,customfield_1234" showcount="true" headers="T,P,Key,Summary,Status,Customer"]
```
{% endcode %}
