In Drupal 7: | |
<?php | |
$postContent = render($content); | |
$word = str_word_count(strip_tags($postContent)); | |
$m = floor($word / 200); | |
$s = floor($word % 200 / (200 / 60)); | |
$est = $m . ' minute' . ($m == 1 ? '' : 's') . ', ' . $s . ' second' . ($s == 1 ? '' : 's'); | |
?> | |
<p>Estimated reading time: <?php echo $est; ?></p> |
