Hi Sonia,

Most of these questions are documented in our online docs.  But, I know our 
docs are extremely long and it can be hard to find what you are looking for 
if you don't know where to look.  So, I've linked the relevant pages inline 
below.

1. At the moment, the person uploading a new item receives an email 
notification with details of the new item added. Can the same email 
notification be sent to a additional receipient (reviewer) once a new item 
has been added as well?

Reviewers will get emails as long as you set up reviewers on the Collection 
level. By default Collections have no reviewers.  To add reviewers, you 
need to assign people to the "Reviewers", "Editors" or "Final Editors" 
roles on the Collection as shown 
here: 
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Edit+Collection#EditCollection-AssignRoles

2. There are some fields that must be added after initial upload of the 
item, can these fields be added to the initial entry screen? )eg. 
dc.contributor.editor, 
dc.format.extent,  relation.ispartof)

The Submission forms are entirely configurable.  You can 
add/remove/rearrange metadata fields as much as you 
like: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Submission+User+Interface

3. Is it possible to edit the license text at the bottom of the "new item" 
page allowing it to be applied to all items?

Yes, this is in the license file, editable in[dspace]/config/default.license
  on the backend.  More info is also in the submission docs above, see the 
content about the "License" sectoin.

4. Can the inactivity time out for adding a new item page be increased?

Yes, that's configurable on the frontend (in your config.*.yml).  It's the 
authentication timeout settings documented 
here: 
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/User+Interface+Configuration#UserInterfaceConfiguration-AuthenticationSettings

5. Can additional fields be added to the short display?

Yes, but it requires code changes. The process though is documented on our 
guide to UI Customizations 
here: 
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/User+Interface+Customization#UserInterfaceCustomization-CustomizethesimpleItempage

6. What type of file format should be used for the thumbnail display (bmp, 
jpg, tiff)?

Thumbnails are generated automatically as long as you run the 
"filter-media" script (on the backend) in a scheduled manner.  It's 
recommended to run it via a cron job (see docs 
at https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Scheduled+Tasks+via+Cron).  
That script will auto-create thumbnails for you (currently, there's not an 
easy manual way to create your own thumbnails).  More information on the 
"filter-media" script is 
at 
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Mediafilters+for+Transforming+DSpace+Content

7. How do I permanently change the results per page to 10 for 
sub-communities and collections?  I keeps reverting to 5.

It's unclear which page you are talking about.  

If you are talking about on the homepage, there's a "pageSize" 
configuration on the frontend (in your config.*.yml) documented 
here: 
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/User+Interface+Configuration#UserInterfaceConfiguration-HomepageSettings

If you are talking about the community-list (browse by community) page, 
then there's a similar "pageSize" configuration documented 
here: 
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/User+Interface+Configuration#UserInterfaceConfiguration-Community-ListSettings

So, if you want it the same on both pages, you may need to set both of 
those configurations.  If it's not working, then I'd recommend reporting a 
bug and describing the exact configuration you are using & the incorrect 
behavior you are seeing.  You can report bugs via GitHub 
at https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues
