 * I only want the secondary title to display on the main post page. I do not want
   it to show up in the widgets etc. However, when I select “on” for the option “
   Only show in main post”. The secondary title no longer displays anywhere.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fdisplay-rules-not-working-3%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi,
 * This can occur when the theme was not programmed according to WP’s standards.
   If you want to display the secondary title only at a specific position, the easiest
   way to go is turning “Auto show” off and use the PHP function and place it into
   your theme at the place where you’d like it to be displayed.
 * Check here for some details:
