## Description

Type-WR allows you to easily implement the popular “typing text” animation effect
without writing a single line of JavaScript.

Simply wrap the target text in a shortcode or use a specific CSS class, and the 
plugin will sequentially display the text character by character, simulating a traditional
typewriter.

**Key Features:**

 * **Easy Integration:** Use the [typewr] shortcode or apply the class ‘typewr-type’.
 * **Customization:** Control typing speed, the presence of a blinking cursor, and
   the conditions for when to show the animation.
 * **Lightweight:** Minimal JavaScript footprint (typewr-script.js) ensuring fast
   page load times.
 * **Compatibility:** Works seamlessly with the Block Editor (Gutenberg) and Classic
   Editor.

## Installation

### Manual Installation

 1. Upload the ‘type-wr’ folder to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.

### Usage

**1. Using the Shortcode:**

Wrap your content with the shortcode:

    ```
    [typewr]This text will be typed out letter by letter.[/typewr]
    ```

There may be nested tags inside. They will be printed one by one.

    ```
    [typewr]
        <h1>This title will be printed.</h1>
        <p>And this paragraph too.</p>
    [/typewr] 
    ```

**2. Using a CSS Class :**

If you use code add the class ‘typewr-type’ to any HTML element (eg div, h1, h2,
h3, pre, p ) on your page or post.

    ```
    <div class ='typewr-type'>
        <h1>This title will be printed letter by letter.</h1>
        <p>This text will be typed out letter by letter.</p>
    </div>
    ```

You can create animation directly in the text

    ```
    This word will be <span class='typewr-type'>animated</span>.
    ```

### Setting

You can change the settings in the “Settings” menu: select “Type-WR”.

**Available Setting Attributes:**

 * speed : Time in milliseconds between each character (default: 50).
 * cursor : Checkbox – show blinking cursor or not (default: true).
 * trigger : When to start animation select “When loading the page” or “When an 
   element appears on the screen” (default: ‘load’)”.

## FAQ

### How do I change the speed of the typing or the presence of a blinking cursor?

You can adjust the speed or showing the cursor in the plugin settings page (Settings-
