Widget Subtitles Plugin

This plugin adds a subtitle input field to all your widgets. You can also change the location of the subtitle and even use filters to change the subtitle output.

Filters

• widget_subtitles_element
• widget_subtitles_classes
• widget_subtitles_default_location
• widget_subtitles_edit_location_capability
• widget_subtitles_available_locations
• widget_subtitles_add_subtitle
• widget_subtitle

You can use these filters inside your theme functions.php file or in a plugin.
