You can easily use a shortcode to shorten links with our WordPress plugin. You just need to download it below and upload it in WordPress and that is it. There is no need to configure it as it will be already configured for you. All of your links will be saved in your account.

Do not share this plugin with anyone you do not trust as they will have access to the full API and essentially your account.

Instructions

1. Download the plugin.

2. Go to WordPress Admin Plugins < Add New < Upload Plugin.

3. Upload the plugin named linkshortenershortcode.zip and activate it. The plugin will be named Link Shortener Shortcode.

Example

The following code will apply the shortcode “shorturl” to the system and you will be able to use the following format.

				
					[shorturl]https://google.com[/shorturl]
				
			

You can also use the shortcode in html.

				
					<a href="[shorturl]https://google.com[/shorturl]">Google
