Text 2 Speech shortcode plugin allows you to automatically transform any text between shortcodes to a HTML5 mp3 player where Google voice will read your text.
Text 2 Speech supports multiple languages, autoplay and it also downloads every mp3 file to your wp-content folder, so you will reduce translation requests.
- Plugin just calls Google services once for each sentence, downloading the mp3 to a "audio" folder in wp-content/ uploads / for future calls.
- The shortcode support multiple languages using a parameter "lang".
- The shortcode accepts autoplay using the "autoplay" parameter.
- To show the player, HTML5 label is used. It requires a browser with support for this label.
- The service does not support long texts, the plugin will work well for texts under 100 characters.
- Plugin requires the PHP cURL library installed on your server to work properly.
