Blog Post Reading Time
Blog Post Reading Time is a lightweight plugin that enhances your blog posts with two key features:
- Estimated Reading Time – show readers how long it will take to read your article.
- Listen to Article (Text-to-Speech) – allow visitors to listen to your blog post using a simple “Listen” button powered by the browser’s built-in speech API.
These features improve accessibility, keep users engaged, and reduce bounce rates by giving them multiple ways to consume your content.
Features:
– Automatically display reading time on posts
– Shortcode support: [bprt_post_reading_time] and [bprt_listen_article]
– Customizable label text (e.g., “Estimated reading time:”)
– Option to show or hide the clock icon (⏱)
– Display positions: after title, after featured image, or before content
– Custom font size setting (in px)
– Adjustable words-per-minute (WPM) setting
– Add a custom postfix (e.g., “min read”)
– Enable/disable “Listen to this Article” feature
– Lightweight and works without third-party APIs (uses browser’s built-in Web Speech API)
