## Aprašymas

The [Count CWP WordPress Plugin](https://www.web357.com/count-words-characters-paragraphs-wordpress-plugin)
enables real-time tracking of character, space, word, and paragraph counts while
writing in posts, pages, or custom textarea fields. Ideal for authors, editors, 
and content managers who require precise text measurements.

### Video Description

### Basic Features

 * Enable or disable character, space, word, or paragraph counts via `Settings >
   Count CWP`.
 * Display counters directly below the WordPress editor or any custom textarea field.

 * Plugin settings panel.

## Diegimas

This plugin is simple to install:

 1. Download the zip file `count-cwp.zip`.
 2. Extract the contents.
 3. Upload the `count-cwp` directory to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 4. Navigate to the Plugins page and activate the plugin.
 5. Configure the settings via `Settings > Count CWP`.

## DUK

### Why should I use this plugin?

Count CWP shows live character, word, paragraph, and space counts while you write
in WordPress. It helps authors, editors, and marketers stay within SEO meta limits,
ad copy constraints, or editorial guidelines without copying text into an external
tool.

### Where do the counters appear?

Counters display below the post and page editor, and below any HTML textarea field
on admin screens — including custom fields from plugins such as Advanced Custom 
Fields (ACF).

### Can I choose which counts to show?

Yes. Go to Settings > Count CWP and enable or disable character, word, paragraph,
and space counts individually.

### How are characters counted?

The character count excludes HTML tags and whitespace. It reflects the visible text
length, which is useful for SEO titles, meta descriptions, and platforms with strict
character limits.

### Does it work while I type in the visual editor?

Yes. Counts update in real time as you type in both the visual and text (HTML) editor
views.

### Can I see word counts for existing posts without opening each one?

Yes. Since v1.0.7, the Posts list includes an All Counts column showing word, character,
paragraph, and space totals for each post. Counts are calculated automatically when
the plugin is activated and updated whenever a post is saved.

### Does this plugin slow down my site?

No. The counters run only in the WordPress admin area while you edit content. They
do not affect your front-end pages or site visitors.

### Does it work with custom post types?

Live counters work on any admin screen that uses a standard HTML textarea. The All
Counts column in the posts list applies to standard posts.

### Does Count CWP work with the Block (Gutenberg) editor?

The live counters were originally built for the Classic editor and any standard 
HTML textarea field. The „All Counts” column in the Posts list works for every post,
regardless of whether it was written in the Classic editor or in Gutenberg.

### Can I track word and character counts for WooCommerce product descriptions?

Yes. As long as the product description uses a standard text or HTML editor field,
the live counters appear below it and the All Counts column tracks the totals.

### Can I use Count CWP to stay within SEO meta title and description limits?

Yes. The character counter shows the visible text length (excluding HTML and whitespace),
which makes it perfect for keeping SEO titles, meta descriptions, ad copy, and social
media snippets within their character limits.

Works as expected, it counts words, paragraphs, and characters. A useful tool for
copywriters, editors, or anybody who writes directly on WP.

Love it! You just install it and it’s ready, no further configuration is needed.
Displays words, characters, and even paragraphs. It’s light and haven’t spotted 
any bugs. Must have already!

Useful for taking a quick glance on what you have in text (especially if you care
for search engine optimization)
