ReadMetric

Përshkrim

ReadMetric calculates how long a post takes to read based on word count (and, optionally, images) and displays it wherever you need it: automatically before or after the content/title, via a Gutenberg block, a shortcode, or a PHP function.

Features

• Automatic reading time calculation (configurable words-per-minute, 100–400)
• Choose where it appears: before/after content, before/after title, or manual only
• Optional icon (clock, book, stopwatch), custom prefix/suffix text
• Optional per-image reading time addition
• Optional estimated “finish by” clock time
• Optional scroll-based reading progress bar
• Optional schema.org timeRequired markup (off by default to avoid clashing with SEO plugins)
• Gutenberg block with icon/prefix/suffix controls and native alignment/color/typography support
• [readmetric] shortcode and readmetric_get_time() / readmetric_display() PHP functions
• REST API endpoint: /wp-json/readmetric/v1/post/{id}
• Per-post “disable reading time” option
• Optional admin list-table column
• Reading time is cached in post meta and recalculated only when content or settings change
• Tools: clear cache, recalculate all posts, export/import settings
