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 🙂
