Description
Secondary Title is a simple, light-weight plugin that adds an alternative title to posts, pages and/or custom post types which can be displayed automatically, with a shortcode or by using PHP.
The plugin comes with an extra settings page which allows you to customize the plugin according to your needs. You can change:
- post types, categories and specific post IDs the secondary title will be
shown on, - whether the secondary title should be automatically added to the standard title (Auto show),
- the format both titles are being shown (only works when Auto show is activated),
- the position where the secondary title input field should be displayed (above or below the standard title) within the admin interface (Classic Editor only),
- whether the secondary title should only be displayed in the main post and not within widgets etc.,
- if the secondary title should be usable in permalinks,
- and even more.
