Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Podcast-Style Text to Speech - Hi, Moose

Yes. This plugin adds a text-to-speech (“read aloud”) audio player to WordPress posts using podcast-style narration. Audio is generated and hosted by the Hi, Moose platform and embedded directly into your site.

You can generate an API key from your Hi, Moose dashboard. Quick and easy; it takes just a minute to get your free API key. You can also connect your site with Quick Connect during setup if you prefer not to copy and paste an API key manually.

Yes! For added security, you can define your API key in your wp-config.php file. Add the following line: define( 'HIMOOSE_API_KEY', 'your-api-key-here' ); This will override any key saved in the database.

Yes, the plugin adds a meta box to the document sidebar (under the "Post" tab) in the Block Editor, allowing you to select episodes easily.

Yes! Use the shortcode [himoose_podcast] anywhere in your post content and this will override the top placement setting.

No. You do not need to provide your own OpenAI, Google, or other AI API keys. Audio generation is handled through the Hi, Moose platform, and you can connect with Quick Connect or use a Hi, Moose API key.

Yes, Hi, Moose includes a free tier for WordPress users with 3 free podcast episodes. Optional paid plans are available if you need more capacity.

The plugin supports 24 languages with automatic language detection or manual selection. This includes English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, and many more.

Yes. The plugin embeds a full, visible, indexable transcript and Schema.org JSON-LD structured data (PodcastEpisode) on each post. Because Hi, Moose creates a podcast-style adaptation instead of a simple word-for-word playback, the transcript can add useful on-page content for SEO, AEO, and AI-powered search systems like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity.

No. All audio and transcripts are hosted and delivered through a global CDN by Hi, Moose. There's nothing to upload, store, or manage on your WordPress server.
