KURL – Short URL Manager For YOURLS Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
kURL connects your WordPress site to your self-hosted YOURLS installation.
It lets you create short URLs for posts, pages, and supported custom post types directly from the WordPress admin area. You can generate links manually, create them automatically on publish, assign custom keywords, refresh click statistics, and process older content in bulk.
kURL also includes migration tools for older Better YOURLS data, local logging for troubleshooting, and optional helper code for true remote deletion and safe reverse lookup on the YOURLS side.
Requires a self-hosted YOURLS installation with API access. No third-party shortening service is included.
If your server uses Nginx instead of Apache, add a deny rule for the wp-content/uploads/kurl/ directory in your Nginx configuration to protect the log folder.
