Override Reading Time Per Post

  • Hi there,

    Love this plugin and super simple and effective to use. With this being said I need to manually input a reading time for posts with video embeds so it’s accurate. Is there anyway of implementing this easily?

    You can adjust the word count of a post by using the ‘rtwp_filter_wordcount’ filter.

    $word_count = apply_filters( 'rtwp_filter_wordcount', $word_count );

    You could use that like:

    functions add_to_wordcount( $count ) {
? ? $count += 600;
?return $count;
}
add_filter( ’rtwp_filter_wordcount’, ‘add_to_wordcount’ );

    This would add 600 words to the count which would be 2 minutes by the default setup.

    Thank you, and how can I add this to a WordPress post easily?

    You could add the code to your functions.php. You would need to do some additional coding to see which particular post you’re on and control the count depending on that.
