Hỏi đáp

Where are the settings?

There are none. The plugin uses sensible defaults (200 words per minute). If you need customization, this plugin isn’t for you.

Can I change the reading speed?

Not through a UI. The plugin is intentionally minimal. Developers can use the filter:

add_filter( 'mrt_words_per_minute', function() {
    return 250;
});

Can I hide the reading time on certain posts?

Add this to your theme’s functions.php:

add_filter( 'the_content', function( $content ) {
    if ( get_the_ID() === 123 ) {
        remove_filter( 'the_content', 'mrt_display_reading_time' );
    }
    return $content;
}, 9 );

Does it work with custom post types?

By default, it only shows on posts. Developers can extend this with a filter.

Why no settings page?

Because you don’t need one. Reading time is simple math. The defaults work for 99% of sites.
