Version 3.2.0

Released 2026-04-18

  • NEW When your site is not connected to TTSWP, a Connect Card now appears at the top of every plugin page. You always see how to get started.
  • NEW Pages that need a connected site show a greyed-out preview with one Connect button. No more clicking buttons that do not work yet.
  • NEW Getting Started cards on the Overview page after you connect. Three quick steps: choose a voice, customize the player, generate your first audio. Hide them once you know your way around.
  • NEW Download button in the TTS column on your posts list. Grab the audio file for any post in one click.
  • NEW Text to Speech menu in the WordPress admin bar with quick links to Voices, Player, Shortcode Generator, Statistics, Plan & Credits, and Documentation.
  • NEW Longer single-request limits. Free users can now generate up to 10,000 characters per request, paid users up to 40,000.
  • IMPROVED The Overview page still shows the welcome screen (free credits, voice demo, stats, and help links) when your site is not yet connected.
  • IMPROVED Long audio generation is more reliable. The plugin now waits longer for ElevenLabs to finish, so files that used to time out after 30 seconds complete properly.
  • IMPROVED Clearer errors when audio generation fails. If the voice you picked has been deleted or your text is longer than the chosen model accepts, you get a message that tells you what to do.
  • IMPROVED The Overview page now shows "ElevenLabs key invalid" when your API key stops working, so you know to update it. No more misleading green status pill.
  • IMPROVED ElevenLabs credits on the Overview page now show per-key limits if you have set one (on app.ttswp.com), not the account-wide limit.
  • IMPROVED Security fixes and code cleanup.
  • FIXED Saving Quick Settings sometimes showed a permission error instead of returning to the Overview page.

Version 3.1.9

Released 2026-04-08

  • NEW Sticky Footer Player (PRO). A persistent audio player bar that stays at the bottom of the page while visitors scroll and read.
  • NEW Waveform Progress Bar (PRO). A unique visual waveform for each post replaces the standard progress bar.
  • NEW Background Opacity setting for the Sticky Footer Player.
  • NEW Player settings now show a live Sticky Footer preview at the bottom of the admin page when Sticky Footer placement is selected.
  • NEW Progress Bar type selector in Player Settings. Choose between Linear (free) and Waveform (PRO).
  • IMPROVED Upgrade card on the Account page now shows your current plan's credit allocation.
  • IMPROVED "Upgrade plan" button replaces "Change tier" on the Account page for clearer messaging.
  • IMPROVED Player color settings now update on the front-end immediately after saving.
