Add title under name

[yesidc]

Hi,
how can I add a title under my name. Something like this:

cv:
   name: My Name
   title: Python developer
   location: ...

Hi,

You can achieve this by editing the Header.j2.tex file, found in the theme folder that comes with the rendercv new command (see the documentation.)

For example, for the classic theme, the Header.j2.tex file can be updated to this:

\newcommand{\AND}{\unskip
    \cleaders\copy\ANDbox\hskip\wd\ANDbox
    \ignorespaces
}
\newsavebox\ANDbox
\sbox\ANDbox{<<design.seperator_between_connections>>}

((* if not design.disable_last_updated_date *))
\placelastupdatedtext
((* endif *))
((* if cv.name is not none *))
\begin{header}
    \fontsize{<<design.header_font_size>>}{<<design.header_font_size>>}
    \textbf{<<cv.name>>}

    \vspace{<<design.margins.header.vertical_between_name_and_connections>>}

+   {\large Python developer}

    \normalsize
    ((* for connection in cv.connections *))
        ((* if design.use_icons_for_connections *))
    \mbox{((*- if connection["url"] -*))
        \hrefWithoutArrow{<<connection["url"]>>}{{\footnotesize<<connection["latex_icon"]>>}\hspace*{0.13cm}<<connection["placeholder"]|escape_latex_characters>>}
        ((*- else -*))
        {\footnotesize<<connection["latex_icon"]>>}\hspace*{0.13cm}<<connection["placeholder"]|escape_latex_characters>>
        ((*- endif -*))}%
        ((* else *))
    \mbox{((*- if connection["url"] -*))
        \hrefWithoutArrow{<<connection["url"]>>}{<<connection["clean_url"]|escape_latex_characters>>}
        ((*- else -*))
        <<connection["placeholder"]|escape_latex_characters>>
        ((*- endif -*))}%
        ((* endif *))
        ((* if not loop.last *))
    \kern <<design.margins.header.horizontal_between_connections|divide_length_by(2)>>%
    \AND%
    \kern <<design.margins.header.horizontal_between_connections|divide_length_by(2)>>%
        ((* endif *))
    ((* endfor *))
\end{header}

\vspace{<<design.margins.header.bottom>> - <<design.margins.section_title.top>>}
((* endif *))

With RenderCV v1.13, you can use arbitrary keys (like title in this case) in your YAML file and use them in the templates. See the docs for details.
