What's New?

"Read Mode" Disable Button

A new button appears at the top of the page when the 'Read mode' is used. We introduced the feature mainly due to user requests.

It can be useful in a specific page configuration, e.g. when a panel is added in the web page code, when a toolbar view is used or when the panel is displayed in an 'unusual' location.

Other implemented changes can be found in the changelog below.

It's the full list of changes:

(!) Added "SameSite" attribute to the cookie (required by modern browsers)
(!) Fixed wrong size of font and line height when increased and decreased in some situations
(!) Fixed the problem with saving current user options
(!) Performance optimizations

"Screen Reader" Advanced Settings Button

"Screen reader" advanced settings have been added in the previous plugin ver. 1.06. We have not described this option so far, so now along with the latest update, we bring you closer to its details.

Plugin users can decide, do they want to edit the screen reader settings.

The screenshot example above comes from the Joomla 4.x installation but options looks the same for WordPress and YOOtheme Pro.

Thanks to those options, the user can define three settings:

Speech pitch - the pitch value can be set between 10 and 2
Speech rate - the rate value can be set between 0.1 and 10
Speech volume - the volume value can be set between 0 and 1
