Control the visibility of post and page titles on your WordPress site — globally or per item — while navigation menus always keep their labels.

== Description ==

MM Title Manager is a lightweight plugin that lets you control the visibility of titles on single posts and pages. Choose whether to show or hide titles site-wide, or override the setting for any individual post or page from the editor sidebar. When a title is hidden, navigation menus still display their link text.

* Override per post or page from the editor
* Navigation menu labels are always preserved
* Clean, responsive settings screen

*Release Date - 28 July 2026*
