Wordcount Pro

Description

Do you feel the need to know how many words in a blog post or page, but don’t want to have to log into the post editor to find out? Then this is the plugin for you. It adds a trailing div after post content to show you total word count for the post. Yes, I see the word count is visible on the editor screen, but this is for situations where you don’t want to have to visit the dashboard to find out the exact word count.
