‘Embed Link ShortCode’ tries to emulate the functionality that facebook has when a link is pasted to the input status. 
But it doesn’t happen when you paste a link in the body of a new post (as when you paste a youtube link in the visual view of a post), it’s done using a shortcode. 
The provided link to the shortcode is fetched to get the meta tags, and these meta tags are used to render the new post content. It tries to get an image and put it as 
post default thumbnail, and it uses some meta tags to get title text and to add a quote. The order in the post content is: image, quote and link. 
If you don’t like the HTML render, you can always edit the code to change format or suggest me some changes.
Usage:
1- Create a new post.
2- Add only the shortcode with the link (in HTML mode, not Visual) in the post body. For example:
[embedlink]http://example.com/example[/embedlink]
3- Push ‘Save Draft’.
If all is ok, the post content will be rewritten with the rendered html code. An image may be uploaded to the media library and added as post default thumbnail. 
 If nothing happens, click the preview link and some error message may be displayed. If a blank entry is showed, all is ok, then click Edit and you will see the rendered code. 
 Otherwise, it will be a bug: please, report it adding the URL you used and the plugin version (update to last version before report!).
4- Review the generated code.

Embed Link ShortCode

This plugin adds a shortcode to get a similar functionality that has facebook when a link is pasted to the input status.

WPAutoLogin

This plugin allows admininstators to generate autologin links for their 
WordPress website, logging in visitors under a certain user name. Administrators 
can edit (generate and delete) autologin links for users, users can only view 
their autologin links. Note that This plugin bypasses the standard 
authentication method of wordpress via login and password and should only be 
used if you understand the security issues mentioned below and on the 
<a href="http://www.craftware.nl/wordpress-autologin/" rel="nofollow ugc">plugin website</a>.
Usage
Once this plugin is activated, administrators can generate autologin links on 
the edit profile administration pages for different users. Users can view their 
autlogin links on their profile pages. Autologin links are of the form:
http://yourwebsite/[subdirectory/]?autologin_code=ABC123
For more convenience it is possible since version 1.05 to generate login links 
directly using the wordpress, site-preview functionality. When viewing the page 
while being logged in as an administrator, the top-bar will show an extra item 
“Auto-login link”. When pointing at the menu item, a dropdown list will list 
all users for whom autologin links were generated on their profile pages. When 
clicking on one of the users, a popup will open showing the link that will 
automatically login a visitor as the selected user and bring him to the 
current page.
Security issues
Since autologin links are meant to be an OPEN way to login to 
your website and can be viewed by users on their profile, it might be considered 
an INSECURE plugin for WordPress. I did my best to make it as secure as possible 
to fit my own needs, but this lead to some design choices which might not sit 
well with all administrators:
Autologin codes are saved as plain text. This means that anyone who can 
execute queries on the WordPress database (plugins, administrators, system 
administrators) can obtain the autologin code for a certain user. I planned an 
extension of this plugin where login codes are hashed. However, this again has 
the disadvantage that noone can redisplay a once generated login link.
This is the most severe problem. For a full self-assesment of possible security 
issues regarding this problem, please visit the

Autologin Links

Plugin authors that create free plugins love people complaining and giving a 1-star rating instead of creating a support thread.


Fact.





Nice.

WARNING: THIS PLUGIN CAN BE INSECURE IF NOT USED CAUTIOUSLY. Allows selected users to autologin to your WordPress website via autologin links.
