Unit Converter

Detects units of measurement in your blog text and automatically displays the metric or US customary equivalent in one of several possible ways.

Download Version 0.5.1

This plugin detects units of measurement (e.g. "10 lbs") and will add the metric or non-metric equivalent (e.g. "4.5 kilograms"). The converted measurement can be added in several ways:

  • as a mouse-over, or
  • in brackets after the original measurement, e.g. "10 lbs (4.5 kilograms)".

It is useful if you use lots of measurements and are writing for an international audience.
