Simple and excellent
This plugin is so useful. My theme won't allow me to place the meta underneath my title within the text block (their suggestion/solution was to manually type it in - ha, what a joke). Then, I found this plugin and it does exactly what I needed. From all those plugins out there, this is the ONLY ONE that offers a simple solution to a common problem (within theme restrictions). Customer support is excellent as well. Any question, just ask and they will respond promptly and help find solutions. 6 stars if I could!
