Shortcodes

Shortcodes are snippets of code that display the text to speech control panel (which contains play, pause, etc..)

  1. Basic Usage – Inserts the Listen button and audio playback functionality.

    [natural_tts]
    
  2. Find Target Text By Direction

    [natural_tts target-tts-direction="below"]
    

    What it means:

    The target-tts-direction attribute tells the plugin where to look for the text to read aloud, relative to where you place the shortcode:

    Below: The plugin will search for the nearest text element after (below) the shortcode’s position.

    Supported direction: above, bottom, left, right

  3. Find Target Text By HTML Selector

    You can target specific HTML elements using tags, class selectors, ID selectors, and more.

    Syntax:

    [natural_tts target-tts-selector="HTML SELECTOR HERE"]
    

    Examples:

    Read the whole page.

    [natural_tts target-tts-selector="body"]
    
  4. Custom Localization (lang)

    Use the lang attribute to set the language of the Text-to-Speech control UI for a specific post or shortcode instance.

    This is useful when:

    • Your site is multilingual without using a multilingual plugin (when you use plugins like Polylang or WPML, our plugin can automatically detect the post language)
    • A single page contains content in multiple languages
    • You want the TTS interface (labels, messages, and controls) to match the content language

    Examples:

    To display the Text-to-Speech controls in Russian.

    [natural_tts lang="ru-RU"]
    

    Note:
    This setting affects only the TTS interface language, not the voice itself. Voice language is controlled separately via your Text-to-Speech provider settings.

  5. Custom Audio URL

    Use your own audio file.

    (PRO VERSION ONLY)

    Examples:

    [natural_tts src="https://example.com/audio.mp3"]
    
  6. Trigger play

    Trigger / Control other shortcodes (other tts control button) to play, pause, etc..

    (PRO VERSION ONLY)

    Examples:

    [natural_tts trigger-play="all"]
    
  7. Visual Shortcode Editor

    You can set the plugin config JSON using the visual shortcode editor on the plugin settings page. Just click, then copy the generated shortcode and paste it into your template.

When you open the plugin settings page in WP Admin, it makes an API call to our server to check the plan you are currently using.

Ofte stilte spørsmål

Don’t want to read long documentation and FAQs? Chat with our Butterfly AI assistant

We know you need an assistant that can answer all your questions, so you don’t have to read through long documentation and FAQs.

You will see a Butterfly flying on our website and plugin settings page in WP Admin after installation.

You can simply ask it questions. It uses RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) technology to provide answers based on our documentation and FAQs.

It also provides reference links you can follow.

Is it FREE?

Yes! The free version uses ElevenLabs or browser-based speech synthesis (Web Speech API). It works, but the voices may sound robotic.

For natural-sounding audio, upgrade to PRO to use ElevenLabs, OpenAI TTS, Google Cloud TTS, Amazon Polly, or Azure AI Speech.

How do I upgrade to PRO?

  1. Go to our website, choose a plan, and complete payment.
  2. You’ll get an email from Freemius with your license key
  3. Search and install this plugin from the WordPress Plugins menu in your WordPress admin
  4. Activate and enter your license key.

How many languages and voices are available?

This plugin itself supports many languages goto Supported Languages

But, when you want to integrate with text to speech (TTS) API as an audio source like OpenAI TTS, ElevenLabs TTS, Google Cloud TTS, Amazon Polly, and Azure AI Speech.

So you will need to check their language support also:

Does Reinvent WP Text To Speech work on every WordPress theme?

Yes. The plugin inserts its player with a shortcode, so it will show on top of your posts. No template editing is required.

Does it work with WooCommerce?

Yes. You can use Reinvent WP Text To Speech with WooCommerce product content because the plugin supports custom post types, including products, alongside posts and pages.

Can I customise the player’s colors, size, or position?

Yes! We’re committed to giving users flexibility and a high-quality TTS experience.

You can go to the WP admin > plugin settings page > look & customization

Does it support Android WebView?

Depends on your WebView provider

If your WebView supports the same APIs as a regular browser, it will work

We try using the Trusted Web Activity and it works.

Here is the simplified tutorial that you can follow

Here is the example working App Reinvent WP Text To Speech Web View with TWA Demo App

When not working, you can just debug on the runtime of the application. See what logcat outputs. What browser APIs are not supported by your webview provider

How is my API key kept secure in PRO mode? Privacy and Data Security?

Your API keys are stored in your WordPress database and used only for direct communication with the TTS provider you configure (e.g., OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, or ElevenLabs). If you use bring-your-own-key providers, requests go directly from your site to that provider. If you enable Reinvent WP Cloud Free, Reinvent WP Cloud PRO, or support-related diagnostics, some text, site context, and account-related data may be processed by Reinvent WP services. Review your enabled providers, your privacy policy, and the provider privacy pages before using cloud-based generation on a live site.

Is this plugin GDPR compliant?

This plugin can support privacy-conscious deployments, but it is not automatically GDPR compliant by itself. Your compliance depends on which providers and cloud features you enable, what data your site sends to third-party services, and how you document those flows in your own privacy and legal policies.

Does Text to Speech improve SEO?

Yes. Audio keeps users on the page longer and adds Text to Speech transcripts that Google can index, often boosting dwell-time and rankings.

How about Pronunciation?

The displayed word and the spoken pronunciation may differ. Using AI, we correct pronunciations to ensure accuracy and cost-effectiveness.

This is designed especially for technical terms, equations, and concepts from academic papers, mathematics, physics, computer science, machine learning, and more.

Displayed: For the equation E = mc², where E stands for energy and c is the speed of light in vacuum.

Spoken: For the equation E equals M C squared, where E stands for energy and C is the speed of light in vacuum.

How about user gesture? eg. double click to play

Users can jump to a sentence or word by double-clicking.

You can configure this in the Plugin Settings Page > Runtime.

Support page builder? like Elementor, Divi, Gutenberg, etc

Yes, absolutely. This plugin is fully compatible with all major WordPress page builders, including:

You can easily add and use the plugin’s features within any of these builders without extra configuration. Whether you’re building landing pages or blog posts, our plugin integrates seamlessly into your workflow.

Don’t waste your time testing the myriad of text to speech plugins available, as this has the most natural sounding voices! And the support from the developer Karim is quick and extremely helpful!

Having tried different options, this plugin is by far the best one I’ve come across. It’s simple to set up, has a bunch of options to customize the critical parts and does exactly what it says. Works in many different languages, and most importantly for me – in Estonian as well. Before setting up the plugin I had to clarify something via customer support and the creator replied to all my emails within 15 minutes. Amazing customer service. Once my client’s site becomes bigger and the free credits run out, I will happily pay for the pro version. You only get one shot at making a first impression and this plugin did it with flying colours. I can understand how this may sound like a paid comment or something, but I’m honestly just relieved that it worked so well. I was stressing over adding a proper TTS to the project I’m working on and feared it was gonna be a nightmare.

I run a blog focused on practical wisdom for professionals navigating midlife transitions. Adding audio narration was on my list for months, but I kept putting it off, assuming the setup would be a headache. It wasn’t. The installation was straightforward, and the documentation is genuinely impressive—extensive without being overwhelming, clearly written, and logically organized. I was up and running faster than expected. What sealed it for me was the developer support. When I had questions, the response was fast, helpful, and human. No canned replies, no runaround—just someone who clearly cares about their product and the people using it. The plugin does exactly what it promises: natural-sounding narration with word highlighting that keeps readers engaged. The OpenAI TTS integration with custom prompt instructions let me dial in the exact tone I wanted for my content. If you’re looking for a text-to-speech solution for WordPress and want something that actually works without becoming a side project, this is it.<gwmw style=»display:none;»></gwmw>

This is by far the most powerful and versatile Text-to-Speech plugin available for WordPress. The quality of the generated audio, especially with ElevenLabs integration, is simply outstanding. The developer, Karim, provides exceptional support. He is incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping users resolve issues and implement custom requests. His recent updates have been fantastic, addressing many common pain points. If you need a reliable, high-quality TTS solution with excellent developer support, look no further. This plugin is a game-changer for content creators.
