  • How to stop playback?

    This plugin is nice and quite easy to use. I managed to make myself a button with some code: <span class="sayit" data-say-content="This is the text that will be read" data-speed="1" data-lang="en-GB">Read me</span> The only thing that's missing imho would be a possibility to stop the playback.

  • Nice text to speech plugin!

    After testing a few other TTS plugins, I chose to use Say It! Except for a small issue with the voice speed setting from shortcode, which I hope will be fixed, the plugin is very useful!

  • HTML5 Not working

    HTML5 option does not work. Clicking on the say it button does nothing. Ditching this one. It's amazing how much crap plugins are created and posted here. Quality level of wp.org is terrible.

  • The best TTS plugin

    I tried so many TTS plugins, this one is the best so far! Please, keep it updated!.

  • Simple and working

    Hi! thanks for your plugin. I would like to add that it would be great if you, in addition to pronunciation, added the ability to show the translation of a word in another language (make the language selection setting). Thanks!

  • Great TTS plugin

    After trying out several TTS plugins for WP, my choice became Say It!. Not in the first place while it's a free plugin, but mainly for its options to use either HTML5 browser voices, or Google-TTF or Amazon Polly. Through the shortcodes the plugin is easy to use at a multilingual website and both whole page texts or selected blocks can be marked for read out loud. Last, but certainly not least, the author gave me good and friendly support and updated his plugin also to the current version of WP (5.5.3 while writing this).
