What is the Divi Post Reading Time module?
Post Reading Time is a Divi 5 module in Divi Supreme Pro that estimates how many minutes a post takes to read and shows it as a small label, such as "5 min read". Add it to a post template and every article gets its own time.
Choose what to count: the post content, the excerpt, or custom text. Count words, or count characters for languages without spaces, where five characters count as one word. Set the reading speed, a prefix and suffix, an icon and its position, and hide the label when there is nothing to count.
