WP Distraction Free View adds a clean frontend Reader Mode to WordPress, helping visitors focus on your content without sidebars, widgets, navigation, and visual clutter.
WordPress core already includes distraction-free writing tools for the admin editor. This plugin is for the frontend visitor reading experience.
Use it to offer focused reading for posts, pages, and selected public custom post types. Visitors can open content in a polished Reader Mode overlay, use the Reader settings control in the modal header to adjust font size, switch between light/dark/sepia themes, choose a comfortable content width, print the reader view, or use browser fullscreen.
<h4>Features</h4>

Reader Mode can also open from the URL on enabled single content:
<pre><code>https://example.com/my-post/?reader-mode=1
