Join the audio revolution by audiofying your posts in the click of a button. For quick start, please follow the instructions on this guide: [Implementation Guide](https://trinityaudio.ai/the-trinity-audio-wordpress-plugin-implementation-guide/) == Trinity audio usage terms == The Trinity Audio plugin provides a Text to speech service, which is performed by Trinity Audio. As such, the service is required to make calls to Trinity’s backend servers. By activating the plugin you consent to our T&C as stated below: [Service Terms & Conditions](https://trinityaudio.ai/wp-plugin-terms/) [Privacy policy](https://trinityaudio.ai/privacy-policy/) For more about Trinity Audio: [Trinity Audio](https://trinityaudio.ai/) == General information == = Make your content accessible on the go using the power of audio = As readers are becoming listeners - it’s up to you to provide them with the experience they’re expecting. Your users are already consuming audio content, Engage with them where they already are: * At the gym * When commuting * At their desk * Anywhere else, anytime = Increase user engagement = * Readers no longer have the luxury of sitting and reading a full article. * Help them skim and improve their user experience on your website. * Increase onsite engagement == Settings and configurations == https://youtu.be/98Q9IeqlWM0 The following are configuration options you can modify as you see fit: * __Source language:__ The language of your content. * __Default Gender:__ the default gender voice for each post. * __New post default:__ Specifies whether the player is automatically enabled for all new posts. Choose this option if you want [Trinity Audio](https://trinityaudio.ai/) to add an audio player for each new post. * __Player position:__ The position of the audio player on your page. We recommend placing the player before the main article text. * __Player label:__ Specifies optional text you’d like to be shown above the audio player (HTML tags are supported with this label). * __Add player to all posts:__ Select this option to place the audio player on all posts. * __Display "Powered by Trinity Audio":__ choose if you want to display credit next to the player. We’d very much appreciate it if you choose to give us credit. * __Resource preconnect:__ this feature will allow us to load the player faster on your page so we strongly advise enabling it. * __Add post title to audio:__ If enabled, each audio file will start by reading the post title. * __Add post excerpt to audio:__ If enabled, each audio file will read an excerpt from the post at the beginning of the audio (after the title, if chosen). * __Skip tags:__ Use this if you want to avoid generating audio for specific parts of posts based on the tags (content blacklist). * __Allow shortcodes:__ By default, the Trinity Audio player will read only the textual content of your post and will filter out all additional texts generated using plugins or shortcodes. If you would like to add shortcodes that you would like the player to read, please add them using comma delimiter. For example: gallery, myshortcode. After you change those settings, make sure to use “Activate for all posts” to allow those configurations to update. * __Activate for all posts:__ Bulk activation of the player on all posts. Make sure to check this checkbox if you would like to activate the player across all of your content. Please bear in mind that some of the processes happen on the backend and it might take some time for the player to appear on all pages (depending on the number of posts you have published). If you return to the settings page, you will get feedback on the process. Still here?
