How to add an audio player to a Wix blog

Wix doesn't do text-to-speech on its own — but adding a narrated audio player to your posts takes about five minutes with an embed.

Wix is a great place to publish, but it has no built-in way to turn a post into audio. The good news: you don't need a plugin or a developer. You generate the audio elsewhere and drop a single embed into your post. Here's the whole thing.

What you'll need

Your Wix blog post (published or draft)
A ButterReader account (the free plan is enough to start)

That's it. No microphone, no code beyond copy-paste.

Step 1 — Generate the audio

In ButterReader, paste your post text or point it at the post's URL. It reads the article — detecting the real content and skipping the Wix header, menu, and footer — and produces a clean narration. Pick a voice that fits your writing and, if you like, style the player to match your Wix theme.

Step 2 — Copy the embed code

Once your player is ready, ButterReader gives you a one-line embed snippet. Copy it. (Every player stays in sync, so if you restyle later, you won't need to re-paste.)

Step 3 — Add an Embed element in Wix

In the Wix editor, open your blog post and add an element:

Click Add Elements (the +)
Choose Embed Code → Embed HTML (also called the HTML iframe/widget)
Paste your ButterReader snippet into the code box
Resize and position it where you want it — usually right under the title

Step 4 — Publish

Hit Publish. Your readers now get a play button on the post — and can listen instead of scroll.

A note on placement

Put the player above the fold, near the top of the article. A player buried at the bottom gets ignored; one that greets readers as they arrive gets pressed. That single placement choice does more for your listen rate than almost anything else.

Beyond Wix

The same embed works anywhere — WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Ghost, or a hand-built site. One player, any platform. Start free and add audio to your best Wix post today.
