 * Hi [@atomikpop](https://wordpress.org/support/users/atomikpop/),
 * Unfortunately, Secondary Title is not yet compatible with WP 5.0. Maybe that’ll
   change in the next version.
 * Sorry!

 * WordPress 5.0 was dropped with only three days notice from the release leads.
   A lot of plugin and theme authors are scrambling to get things updated for the
   new block editor. 😕
 * In the meantime I’ve been using the [Classic Editor plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/)
   just to edit secondary titles and then switching back to the 5.0 block editor
   for writing content.

 * [@chrisdavidmiles](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chrisdavidmiles/) Yeah,
   it was the worst decision WP has ever done so far.
 * As you write, using the Classic Editor plugin to edit a secondary title works.
   I’ve uploaded a detailed announcement here: [https://www.koljanolte.com/wordpress/plugins/secondary-title/announcements/2018-12-12.html](https://www.koljanolte.com/wordpress/plugins/secondary-title/announcements/2018-12-12.html)
 * In the meantime, I’m working on a fix.

 * [@thaikolja](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thaikolja/) your plug “secondary
   title” is great. Please make it compatible with the WP latest version as soon
   as possible. Thanks in advance.

 * I’m using your great plugin on a news website. I’m waiting for the update to 
   5 WordPress version too. I hope it will happen soon!

 * Hi all,
 * I’ve fixed it. However, it’d be a huge help if I had a couple of users to test
   it before I update it officially. Any volunteers available? The new editor is
   technically quite different from a technological point of view than the standard
   one, that’s why I’d rather not upload a buggy update.
 * Thanks!

 * Hello,
    I am building a site where I need a secondary title in a non roman font
   with a different font-type than primary.
 * Your plugin would be very handy.
 * I would be very happy to test it with WP 5.1 while I am building this site.

 * Hi [@canayou](https://wordpress.org/support/users/canayou/),
 * Thanks for your willingness. Do you use the Gutenberg editor? Because that’s 
   what has to be fixed and tested.

 * Hi [@thaikolja](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thaikolja/)
    Yes I use Gutenberg
   for that website. I tested your method with Classic activated/deactivated but
   you can imagine I’d prefer a more direct way… I think my work in progress for
   that site is ideal to make some tests.

 * [@canayou](https://wordpress.org/support/users/canayou/): I see. Well, as you’ve
   probably read on the quick fix documentation page, I’m not very fond of the new
   editor. But some users are, so I have to come up with a fix.
 * I have two approaches: One is more like a jQuery hack that inserts a text field
   for the secondary title above the main title field, similar to the old editor.
 * The other solution would be creating a block. But blocks don’t allow to be placed
   above the main title which would make it look a bit awkward.
 * Any suggestions?
