Apraksts
The Reading Time Block plugin calculates and displays an estimated reading time based on the post content.
It uses a configurable reading speed (default: 200 words per minute) and outputs a clean, server-rendered block to the frontend.
This is ideal for blogs, documentation, or any content where you want to set expectations about how long it will take a visitor to read the page.
Features
- Adds a block to the Gutenberg editor for reading time.
- Automatically calculates based on post content.
- Supports customizable reading speed (WPM) via Settings Reading.
- Lightweight and fast—no JS build step required.
- Fully translatable and namespace-isolated.

How is the reading time calculated?
-
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.

Can I change the reading speed?
-
Yes. You can adjust the reading speed via a numeric input or preset values in Settings Reading.
-
Does this plugin require JavaScript building or Node.js?
-
No, the block is written in plain JavaScript and PHP, so there’s no build step or asset compilation required.
