## Description
This plugin adds a Visual Subtitle field to all post, page and custom post types
that have support for a title, and that use the Classic Editor. It doesn’t work
with the Block Editor.
It allows you to include a string of text that will still be part of the post title,
but be wrapped in a `span` tag, giving something like:
```
Visual Subtitle
```
Keeping it as part of the main level 1 or two heading, means it maintains as much
keyword SEO importance as the main title, yet can be given a style (in your own
theme) of `display: block;` to make it visually appear as a subtitle.
The visual subtitle is appended to to the title on on the Posts screen, separated
with a pipe (`|`) character, and appended to the title part of the document title
with a colon (`:`) character.

## FAQ
### Can I change the separators?
Only currently by amending the plugin code.
### My subtitle isn’t appearing on a new line?
You need to add the `.subtitle { display: block; }` style to your own theme, along
with any other styling you want for it.

Works as advertised. Simply added the following CSS to help is deeply a bit more
clearly on my site: .subtitle { display: block; margin-top: 1px; font-size: 2.2rem;
font-weight: 400; }
