Share draft posts with anyone via a secure, temporary link — no WordPress login required.

tidyplugins

Tidy Draft Share lets you share any unpublished WordPress post with clients, editors, or collaborators — without publishing it and without giving them a WordPress account.
Generate a secure, time-limited link and send it to anyone. They will see the post exactly as it will look once published: same theme, same layout, same formatting.
<h4>Why Tidy Draft Share?</h4>
Most editorial workflows hit the same wall: “Can you take a look at this before I publish it?”. The usual workarounds — copying text into an email, exporting a PDF, or creating a temporary user account — are clunky and error-prone.
Tidy Draft Share solves this with a single click. Create a link, send it, done. The recipient sees a pixel-perfect preview of the post inside your actual theme. When the link expires, access is gone.
<h4>Key features</h4>
<ul>
<li>One-click sharing — Generate a secure link from the editor sidebar or the posts list, and copy it to your clipboard instantly</li>
<li>Flexible expiration — Choose from 1 hour, 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, 30 days, or no expiration at all</li>
<li>Revoke anytime — Disable any link immediately with one click; access stops on the spot</li>
<li>Multiple links per post — Create separate links for different reviewers, each with its own expiration and view count</li>
<li>View tracking — See how many times each link has been opened</li>
<li>Works everywhere — Supports posts, pages, and any custom post type (WooCommerce products, portfolio items, etc.)</li>
<li>All unpublished statuses — Drafts, pending review, scheduled, and private posts</li>
<li>SEO safe — Shared previews include a noindex/nofollow meta tag automatically, so search engines never index them</li>
<li>Preview banner — A clear “Draft preview” banner at the top of the page tells the reader the content is not published yet</li>
<li>Expired link page — Visitors see a clean, branded message when a link has expired instead of a confusing error</li>
<li>Gutenberg & Classic — Full sidebar panel in the block editor, classic meta box for older setups</li>
<li>Quick share from posts list — One-click share directly from your posts table, no need to open the editor</li>
<li>Clean uninstall — All data is removed from your database when the plugin is deleted</li>
</ul>
<h4>Use cases</h4>
<ul>
<li>Share a formatted article with a client for approval before publishing</li>
<li>Let an external editor proofread a draft without creating a WordPress account</li>
<li>Preview scheduled content with your marketing team or stakeholders</li>
<li>Send a private post to a specific person without opening it to all logged-in users</li>
</ul>
<h4>Privacy & security</h4>
Every share link uses a cryptographically secure 32-character token. Token validation uses constant-time comparison to prevent timing attacks. Links are checked on every visit — expired or revoked links return a 403 immediately. No data is sent to external servers; everything stays in your WordPress database.
