<p>This plugin will allow WordPress users to automatically provide an audio version of their written content, using the HearWho Text to Speech engine. Upon creation of a new blog post a “Listen to this text” link will be prepended to blogs and allow the user to listen to the blog entry rather than read it. This is useful for folks trying to read-content while on the go, for visually impaired users visiting your blog, or for those that would just rather have content read to them,  rather than read it directory.  Users of this plug must obtain a free license key on https://hearwho.com to use the functionality. A free key is valid for use on conversion of up to 3,000 characters (most blog posting are usually under 3,000 characters). If you need more than this, we charge a very modest fee to substantially increase those limits (3.99 USD/month).</p>
<p>Instructions:</p>
<ol>
<li>Install plugin through your WordPress administration page. (Or, extract the contents of the zip file and upload it directly into the plugins folder: “/wp-content/plugins/”).</li>
<li>Next, activate plugin and go to the HearWho Settings page in your WordPress site and enter your API Key. (If you need an API key, create a free account on HearWho.com and visit this same page to see your key.)</li>
<li>Now, every new blog post you publish, or anytime you update an existing blog post, a high quality “spoken version” of your posting will be prepended to your posting.</li>
</ol>
<p>Note: the plugin will not retroactively add speech versions of existing blog posts. If you would like to add an audio version for an older post, simple open up the edit screen (not quick edit) as you normally do for an older post, an simply click the update or save button.</p>

<p>Real Voice is a text-to-speech plugin for WordPress that supports the Web Speech API, Google Text-to-Speech AI, and Azure Text to speech.</p>
<h3>Pro Version</h3>

This upgraded edition includes more text-to-speech converters (other integrations for Amazon Polly and ElevenLabs are available), the ability to make the audio files downloadable by the visitors, customizable audio player placement using a shortcode, and more.</p>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<h4>Automatically Add the Audio Player</h4>
<p>The plugin automatically adds an audio player at the beginning of the articles. Note that from the plugin options, you can configure post types on which the audio player should be displayed.</p>
<h4>Manually Generate the Audio Files</h4>
<p>We have included a dedicated post sidebar section where you can create a new audio version of the post, update the existing audio version, or delete the audio data.</p>
<p>The website administrator, the editor, or other authorized users can at any time access to this area.</p>
<h4>Monitor the Presence and State of the Audio Files</h4>
<p>The plugin adds a new column named “Audio File” to the posts menu (and to the admin menu of all the other enabled post types). Here, you can verify if a specific post has its related audio version and if this version is up to date with the post.</p>
<h4>Customizable HTML Audio Player</h4>
<p>The plugin generates a custom audio player built with HTML and the browser API. You can customize the style of the player (color, typography, shadows, etc.) using the plugin options.</p>
<h4>Responsive Audio Player</h4>
<p>The audio player is responsive, and you can specify the breakpoint used to switch from the desktop to the mobile version with a dedicated option.</p>
<h4>Supports Plain Text and SSML</h4>
<p>You can generate the audio version of an article from plain text or SSML.</p>
<p>In the case of SSML, the supported tags vary depending on the selected text-to-speech converter.</p>
<h4>Add Additional Text Before or After the Player</h4>
<p>Use the dedicated options to configure the message displayed before (or after) the player. You can set messages like “Listen to this article”, “This article is also available in an audio format”, etc.</p>
<h4>Optionally Read the Post Title</h4>
<p>Do you want to use the post title as the first synthesized sentence? Then, use the dedicated settings option to apply this behavior.</p>
