Check if the_subtitle is empty

    We are using your very handy plugin to enable us to use more detailed titles in place of the_title() – so I’m hoping you can help me out.

    It’s probably a stupid question, but nothing I’ve tried has worked.

    How can I tell my template to use the_subtitle if there is one, and default to the_title if the_subtitle is empty?

    So far everything I’ve tried has just displayed the_subtitle and the_title together (when both are present) instead of hiding the_title.

    Hope you can help!

    Something along these lines:

    <?php
$subtitle = the_subtitle( '', '', false );
if ( ! empty( $subtitle ) ) {
   echo $subtitle;
} else {
   the_title();
}
?>
