Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records Custom URL Replacer version 1.0.1 as active, updated 1y ago and tested up to WordPress 6.7.
Overview
About this plugin
Custom URL Replacer scans your post content for anchor tags where the visible text exactly matches the full URL. If the URL is external to your site, it replaces the text with a custom string. Additionally, if the “Open in New Tab” setting is enabled, the plugin forces all external links to open in a new tab by adding target=”_blank” and rel=”noopener noreferrer” automatically.
A settings page is provided under the Tools menu so you can customize the replacement text and toggle the new tab option.
