JReviews Theme Suffix - this suffix will be applied to the module view file and is useful to create multiple instances of the module that have different outputs. The module comes with one default suffix "_map" which includes the address and radius fields, you should enter this suffix if you use the GeoMaps add-on.

Specify Itemid of JReviews menu for result url - by default the search result page will inherit an Itemid of the JReviews Advanced Search menu item. Here you can override this to a different menu item if you want.

Theme Suffix for search results page - here you can apply a custom theme suffix for the search results page.
