What It Does

The Subtitles plugin addresses the challenge of adding subtitles to WordPress posts, pages, and custom post types. Currently, WordPress does not provide a straightforward method for this, leaving users and developers searching for effective solutions. Using excerpts or custom fields is not ideal, as they can be confusing and not user-friendly.

This plugin simplifies the process. After downloading and activating Subtitles, users can quickly add subtitles to their content. For more advanced features, users can refer to the Frequently Asked Questions section.
