  • Thanks!

    As a user of WordPress with a Persian background, I am genuinely grateful to the developers for offering such a valuable solution.

  • Thank you for supporting accessibility!

    Thanks for this little Plugin! Seems it just adds a <span>-tag to the block. This can also be done with the html-mode of the block-editor. But so it might be a little bit easier to maintain.

  • Such a loving life saver for accessibility!

    Thank you, thank you, thank you!, for creating and sharing this plugin. As small as this may seem to the less knowledgable, this plugin provides a massive win for accessibility! Update Tuesday, Nov. 21: this plugin still works fine with WordPress 6.4.x! An yes, of course, you can achieve the in the HTML editor manually, but not all users are comfortable doing that. This is a great solution!
