Not working in WP 5.03

  • This plugin looks great, but unfortunately does not work in WP 5.03.

    The subtitle field on the Edit screen (which oddly is way down below the post, rather than under its title) does display; however, none of the text entered there ends up anywhere. It does not display in post previews, for example.

    Also, for older posts which already have subtitles courtesy of ‘Subtitles’ plugin, their subtitles do not display in the KIA subtitle field on the Edit screen. The field is empty, and new text entered there does not overwrite existing subtitles.

    Can KIA be updated to work in 5.03?

    In the interim, I really need to post today/tomorrow, so are there other plugins that can do this? (‘Subtitles’ no longer works either.)

    Thanks ??

    Hi @stephcthomp,

    In the Gutenberg editor, the field is automatically where backcompatible metaboxes go. There’s no hook to attach to below the title the way there was in the classic editor. This is the best immediate fix that I can do to keep the subtitles functional until I have the opportunity to learn more about Gutenberg.

    however, none of the text entered there ends up anywhere. It does not display in post previews, for example.

    The plugin doesn’t display anything on the front-end until you modify your theme. I chose not to auto-display because there are a billion themes and there’s no way I could choose correctly for them all.

    Please see this section of the FAQ: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/kia-subtitle/#how%20do%20i%20display%20the%20subtitle%20in%20my%20theme%3F for how to display the subtitle on the front-end.
