Requirements
You can configure this plugin in the ACP under Configuration ⇒ Lexicon ⇒ Entries ⇒ Reading Time Estimate. You can disable this functionality completely without uninstalling the plugin. You can also specify whether the reading time estimate should be displayed in minutes only (rounded, rounded up or rounded down) or in minutes and seconds. By default, an average reader is assumed to read about 200 words per minute. Of course, you can also adjust this value individually to your target group.
The reading time estimate is displayed on the article page as well as in certain article lists.
Further individual adjustments (such as the icon) can be realized by modifying the template __lexiconEntryReadingTime and __lexiconEntryMessageListReadingTime as well as the language items lexicon.entry.readingTime.minutes and lexicon.entry.readingTime.minutesAndSeconds.
Important note: The templates __entryReadingTime and __entryMessageListReadingTime have been updated. If you've made adjustments to these templates, you must check your customized templates for changes and update them if necessary.
For buyers who have already purchased an earlier version, this version is available for an upgrade fee.
