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.

Overview

About this plugin

The Toolszu Link Shortener seamlessly connects your WordPress website to your Toolszu Creator dashboard.

Stop manually copying and pasting your WordPress URLs into external link shorteners.

With this plugin, you can automatically generate beautiful, branded short links the exact second you hit “Publish” on a new post or page.

Designed for content creators, marketers, and SaaS users, this plugin integrates directly with your Toolszu account to keep your link management centralized and professional.

Key Features

  • Auto-Shorten on Publish: Automatically generates a short link in the background the moment a post goes live.
  • Custom Domain Support: Choose exactly which branded domain you want to use for your links (e.g., biopage.link, myzu.link ).
  • Customizable Link Styles: Choose between short & random codes (e.g., aX7b9Q ) for social media, or SEO-friendly slugs (e.g., my-post-name-123 ) for email newsletters.
  • One-Click Copy: Easily view and copy your generated short links directly from the WordPress “All Posts” and “All Pages” list views.
  • Retroactive Generation: Quickly generate short links for your older, existing posts with a single click.
  • Live Link Preview: See exactly what your short URL will look like before you save your settings.
  • Local Reset: Easily “Unlink” a URL from your WordPress post if you have deleted it in your Toolszu dashboard, giving you a clean slate to generate a new one.
