Shortcodes

Shortcodes are snippets of code that display the text to speech control panel (which contains play, pause, etc..)

1. Basic Usage – Inserts the Listen button and audio playback functionality.

   [natural_tts]

2. Find Target Text By Direction

   [natural_tts target-tts-direction="below"]

   What it means:

   The target-tts-direction attribute tells the plugin where to look for the text to read aloud, relative to where you place the shortcode:

   Below: The plugin will search for the nearest text element after (below) the shortcode’s position.

   Supported direction: above, bottom, left, right

3. Find Target Text By HTML Selector

   You can target specific HTML elements using tags, class selectors, ID selectors, and more.

   Syntax:

   [natural_tts target-tts-selector="HTML SELECTOR HERE"]

   Examples:

   Read the whole page.

   [natural_tts target-tts-selector="body"]

4. Custom Audio URL

   Use your own audio file.

   (PRO VERSION ONLY)

   Examples:

   [natural_tts src="https://example.com/audio.mp3"]

5. Trigger play

   Trigger / Control other shortcodes (other tts control button) to play, pause, etc..

   (PRO VERSION ONLY)

   Examples:

   [natural_tts trigger-play="all"]

6. Custom Show Hide Button on TTS control

   Sometimes we only want specific buttons to show

   The “basic” stands for showing the play, pause, resume, and stop

   Examples: Show only play, pause, resume, stop

   [natural_tts only-show="basic"]

   Show only play, pause, resume, stop, and the setting button

   [natural_tts only-show="basic,settings"]

   Another value that you can also put in

   [natural_tts only-show="basic,backward_sentence,forward_sentence,backward_paragraph,forward_paragraph,settings"]

7. Custom Localization (lang)

   Use the lang attribute to set the language of the Text-to-Speech control UI for a specific post or shortcode instance.

   This is useful when:

   • Your site is multilingual without using a multilingual plugin (when you use plugins like Polylang or WPML, our plugin can automatically detect the post language)
   • A single page contains content in multiple languages
   • You want the TTS interface (labels, messages, and controls) to match the content language

   Examples:

   To display the Text-to-Speech controls in Russian.

   [natural_tts lang="ru-RU"]

   Note: This setting affects only the TTS interface language, not the voice itself. Voice language is controlled separately via your Text-to-Speech provider settings.

8. Visual Shortcode Editor

   You can set the plugin config JSON using the visual shortcode editor on the plugin settings page. Just click, then copy the generated shortcode and paste it into your template.

External Services

When a user opens a post or article and starts playing the audio, the audio is generated/served from your server — we do not make any API calls to our servers to create the audio.

All your plugin configurations, TTS API secret keys, and audio files are stored in your own self-hosted WordPress. This makes it private and secure.

When you open the plugin settings page in WP Admin, it makes an API call to our server to check the plan you are currently using.

Our server is live at https://services.reinventwp.com, and it is used for:

• Subscription authentication (via Freemius)
• Error logging
