2. Unzip the archive.
3. Copy the folder to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.

### Git
Using git, browse to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory and clone this repository:
`git clone git@github.com:GaryJones/Visual-Subtitle.git`
Then go to your Plugins screen and click __Activate__.
## Description
This plugin adds a Visual Subtitle field to all post, page and custom post types that have support for a title, using the Classic Editor. It doesn't work with the Block Editor.
In a future version, this plugin may include a user interface with a list of checkboxes, so users can deselect which post types visual subtitle is applied to.
Those comfortable with code can filter the indexed array of post types via the `visual_subtitle_supported_types` filter.
The plugin allows you to include a string of text that will still be part of the post title, but be wrapped in a `small` tag, giving something like:
`
Main TitleThis is a 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, with a ` | ` separator, and appended to the title part of the document title with a filterable colon and space (`: `) separator.
