The Timer Shortcode Injector detects time phrases in your recipe instructions (e.g. “2 min,” “1 hour,” “30–40 minutes”) and wraps them in WPRM timer shortcodes. The output is updated recipe JSON that you can reimport to enable clickable, inline countdown timers.

How it works:

Input: You send us your URL, or the WPRM recipe ID you want processed.

Process:

  • The tool parses instructions, identifies time units (minutes, hours, time ranges).

  • It wraps matches in WPRM timer shortcodes.

  • Ambiguous phrases are skipped to avoid incorrect injections.

Output: Enhanced recipe JSON with timer shortcodes added, ready for import into WP Recipe Maker (WPRM).

Why It Matters

  • Boosts recipe SEO and AIO visibility by embedding structured timer markup.

  • Enhances user engagement: readers see clickable timers and can start countdowns.

  • Adds functionality without altering your site design or manual editing.

  • Efficient for large recipe archives: reduces manual shortcode insertion.

  • Works with multiple timers per instruction step and supports time ranges (e.g. “30–40 min”).

  • No. The demo only returns updated JSON. You choose what to import.
