It has been such a pleasure to serve on CAT with you for so many years —
you will be missed!! But I did want to point out that we have developed an
informal tradition over the years of having members of CAT who rotate off
of the official committee stay in this Commons group.

Best,

Matt

Our developer wants to make sure you know the following before installing the plugin:

To be clear, this plugin simply acts as a bridge between the WP site and the user’s Browse Aloud subscription. It doesn’t actually provide the text-to-speech functionality – it appears that the plugin does nothing unless the end user signs up for a…

If you can find something better in the WordPress repository, let us know and we can install it. Thanks.

If you expect to have a lot of posts, this may not be practical, and we should probably install the plugin you mention. Let us know. We try to keep from having too many plugins that do the same thing. Thanks
