## Descriere

**ZeroBloat Reading Time** does one thing: shows how long it takes to read your 
post.

No settings page. No database entries. No JavaScript. No CSS files. No bloat.

Just install, activate, done.

#### Features

 * Automatically displays „X min read” before post content
 * Works out of the box — zero configuration
 * Shortcode `[reading_time]` for custom placement
 * Translation-ready
 * Less than 5KB total plugin size
 * No external dependencies
 * No tracking or analytics
 * No upsells or pro version

#### Usage

**Automatic:** Just activate the plugin. Reading time appears on all posts.

**Shortcode:** Use `[reading_time]` anywhere in your content or theme.

**With specific post:** Use `[reading_time id="123"]` to show reading time for a
specific post.

#### Styling

The plugin adds minimal CSS. To customize, target `.mrt-reading-time` in your theme:

    ```
    .mrt-reading-time {
        color: #999;
        font-style: italic;
    }
    ```

## Instalare

 1. Upload the `zerobloat-reading-time` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`
 2. Activate through the ‘Plugins’ menu
 3. Done. No configuration needed.

## Întrebări frecvente

### Where are the settings?

There are none. The plugin uses sensible defaults (200 words per minute). If you
need customization, this plugin isn’t for you.

### Can I change the reading speed?

Not through a UI. The plugin is intentionally minimal. Developers can use the filter:

    ```
    add_filter( 'mrt_words_per_minute', function() {
        return 250;
    });
    ```

### Can I hide the reading time on certain posts?

Add this to your theme’s functions.php:

    ```
    add_filter( 'the_content', function( $content ) {
        if ( get_the_ID() === 123 ) {
            remove_filter( 'the_content', 'mrt_display_reading_time' );
        }
        return $content;
    }, 9 );
    ```

### Does it work with custom post types?

By default, it only shows on posts. Developers can extend this with a filter.

### Why no settings page?

Because you don’t need one. Reading time is simple math. The defaults work for 99%
of sites.
