Adding a subtitle in Premium plan
-
I would like to add a subtitle to my post, but I do not have the Business plan and, right now, do not need it yet. Is there any alternative way in the Premium plan to add a subtitle without using a plugin?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hello there,
It’s possible to add an excerpt: https://wordpress.com/support/excerpts/
Do you have an example of what you’re looking to achieve please?

I created an excerpt in a draft post, but when I previewed it, the excerpt did not appear. Do they appear only in published posts?
-
Hello there,
For the theme in use, the excerpt would appear on the posts page, when the post is published – as a kind of preview.
It wouldn’t show on the post itself.

You could publish it privately and view the excerpt that way. It’s used in a few different ways in different places.
Also: you said subtitle; I’m wondering if that’s different from an excerpt. If you just want something to appear at the top of the post under the title, what happens if you type it and then change the block settings so it’s a heading block styled the way you like it?
You can try this: on a new line at the top of the post, type
/head, select a heading block, and type the subtitle. Then adjust the block settings as you’d like. -
I changed my theme to Cols and add a subtitle– see https://batsandstats.com/2021/12/29/writing-about-sports-red-smith/ — it is in purple below the title. But now the title takes up two lines and there is too much space between them. Is there a way to reduce that space?
-
You could try reducing the space between the lines with some custom CSS. You add that to Appearance – Customize – Additional CSS:
h5 { line-height: 1.5; }Also, remember that with your plan, you can access support directly via https://wordpress.com/help/contact. That way, you can get help faster.

Thanks. That’s helpful.
How can I narrow the distance between the H1 and H5 headers while increasing it a bit between the H5 header and the top line of the body text without pushing down the body text?
