Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Reading Time Block
The plugin counts the number of words in the post content and divides by the configured reading speed in words per minute (WPM). It then rounds up to the nearest minute if necessary.
Yes. You can adjust the reading speed via a numeric input or preset values in Settings → Reading.
No, the block is written in plain JavaScript and PHP, so there's no build step or asset compilation required.
