  Not all themes are designed to show the tagline. Sketch is one of them.

  However I can see that Sketch is hiding the tagline using CSS. We can unhide it using the following CSS but it requires the paid Custom Design upgrade.

  .site-description {
  display: block;
  }

  I’m also trying to do the same thing, have just changed my blog invisiblehorse.wordpress.com to the Sketch theme from Oulipo, and I can’t get the tagline to appear under the title – just as you describe. Hope you don’t mind me adding my voice here without being able to offer a solution (as yet!)

  The solution is above your post. If you do not have the Custom Design upgrade, you will not be able to do it.

  I’ve got round it another way – by adding an extra Text Widget to the top of the sidebar and using the title of the widget to express my tagline ‘Living in the moment’. This is visible at the top of the page on the computer screen view but of course the tagline appears at the bottom of the page on a tablet or phone.

  It is far off the site title but still it is a good idea :-)

  Well done.
