Adding reading time to your articles improves user experience, increases engagement, and helps visitors quickly decide whether they have enough time to read your content. Many modern blogs, news websites, and online magazines display reading time to enhance readability and reduce bounce rates — and now you can easily add this feature to your WordPress site. The plugin calculates the total word count of your post content (excluding HTML and shortcodes) and estimates the reading duration based on your configured Words Per Minute (WPM) setting. You can fully control how the reading time appears using custom formatting options. #### Why Use Article Read Time? * Improve user experience (UX) * Increase content transparency * Boost blog engagement * Reduce bounce rate * Encourage longer session duration * Support better SEO performance #### Key Features * Display reading time using shortcode * Display reading time using template tag * Adjustable Words Per Minute (WPM) * Min–max interval option (e.g., 10–12 min read) * Lower-than threshold custom format * Fully customizable output format using %s placeholder * Lightweight and performance optimized * Secure and WordPress coding standards compliant * Works with posts and pages * No unnecessary scripts or frontend assets #### Flexible Formatting Options You can configure the plugin to display: * Simple format: 5 min read * Interval format: 10–12 min read * Custom format for short articles (using Lower Than Threshold feature) This makes it perfect for: * Blogs * News websites * Educational content * Long-form articles * Magazine-style websites * Content publishing platforms #### Easy to Use 1.

It calculates total word count from post content and divides it by the configured words-per-minute value. ### Can I change the reading format? Yes. You can customize the output format from the settings page using %s as a placeholder. ### What is Lower Than Format? If the calculated reading time is below a defined threshold, a different format can be used (for example, short articles). ### Does it automatically display reading time? No. You must use the shortcode or template tag. ### Is it lightweight? Yes. The plugin runs only when shortcode or template tag is used and does not load unnecessary assets. ## Đánh giá Không có đánh giá nào cho plugin này. ## Người đóng góp & Lập trình viên “Article Read Time” là mã nguồn mở.
