 * Hi,
 * If we have a multilingual website set up with WPML s it possible to somehow translate
   the ‘# min read’ text?
 * Thanks

 * Unfortunately that is not wrapped within a gettext function to make it translation
   ready. The line is in the worth-the-read.php file at line 335:
 * $time_format = empty($options[‘time-format’]) ? ‘# min read’ : $options[‘time-
   format’];
 * I need to update that in the next release so that it’s multilingual ready. Thanks
   for bringing this to my attention.

 * I am not sure if this will be the correct approach, but I edited the line like
   this:
    `$time_format = empty($options['time-format']) ? __('# min read','wpml_domain_name'):
   $options['time-format'];` This works for me and I am able to scan for the # min
   read string with WPML

 * Yep, that’s the way to do it! Thanks for sharing the code. I will get it in the
   next update 🙂
