How to Add Subtitle Below the title of the Blog Post?

Hi there,

i explain how to in this topic:

https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/2-things-i-need-to-do-it-with-gp-theme-after-bought-it/#post-852326

You only need to follow steps in point 1.

I want to add this manually. I mean I don't want any plugin for this. I wanna do with the help of code. Please Help ASAP

You would need to use WordPress Custom Fields:
https://wordpress.org/support/article/custom-fields/

And Hook this code into site, as per the topic i linked to:

<?php
// Get custom field value
$subtitle = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'your-custom-field', true );
// Display $subtitle if not empty
if ( ! empty( $subtitle ) ) {
    echo '<p class="custom-subtitle">' . $content . '</p>';
} 
?>

Change the your-custom-field slug to whatever you named your custom field.

Hi David,

I try to use the last solution (subtitles) and I use GeneratePress Child: functions.php. Is this the right place where I should insert the code?
It didn't worked yet.

Kind Regards,

Hi Markus,

Do you want to add the subtitle before the entry title in each single post?

If so, try add this code in a hook element, change the your-custom-field to the slug of your custom field.

<?php
// Get custom field value
$subtitle = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'your-custom-field', true );
// Display $subtitle if not empty
if ( ! empty( $subtitle ) ) {
    echo '<p class="custom-subtitle">' . $subtitle. '</p>';
} 
?>

Tick the Execute PHP box, choose generate_before_entry_title as the hook, choose post > all posts as location.

Please refer to the screenshot below:

If you want it to be at other spot on the site, here's the visual hook guide:

Is there a possibility to adapt form and font size of this subtitle?

You can use CSS to style the text. :)
