## FAQ

### How is reading time calculated?

Reading time is calculated by counting the words in your content and dividing by
the configured words per minute (default: 200 WPM). The result is rounded up to 
ensure a minimum of 1 minute.

### Can I customize the display text?

Yes! Go to Settings -> Reading Estimator and modify the « Display Text » field. 
Use %s as a placeholder for the calculated time value.

### Which post types are supported?

By default, the plugin works with posts. You can configure it to work with pages,
custom post types, or any combination through the settings page.

### Can I place the reading time manually?

Yes, use the `[sigukrest_reading_time]` shortcode to place reading time anywhere
in your content or theme files.

### Does this work with page builders?

Yes, the plugin works with most page builders and themes since it hooks into WordPress’s
standard content filters.
