<p>Share a link to anonymous users to preview a draft of a post (or any other public post type) before it is published.</p>
<p>Have you ever been writing a post with the help of someone who does not have access to your site and needed to give them the ability to preview it before publishing? This plugin takes care of that by generating an URL with an expiring nonce that can be given out for public preview.</p>

Public Post Preview

This is one of the very few plugins I install on literally every single site I work on. Absolutely invaluable.

Must Install

This plugin has been very helpful in sharing articles for feedback before they are published. Straightforward and easy to use.  Thanks!
