The Plugin adds an link preview box to your post. 
The link preview box will be displayed like in Facebook! 🙂
This plugin can be used for free for maximal 10 URL Preview Boxes.
Perhaps you are familiar with Facebook. 
When you write a post in Facebook and you paste an URL into your text, 
Facebook detects that URL and adds automatically information about that URL under your post.
This plugin does it not automatically, you have to use the extra button in the visual editor (“URL BOX”). 
Or you just write [urlpreviewbox url=”\https://….”] into your text. 
This plugin loads information about that URL from https://guteurls.de/ server.
<ol>
<li>Title of that page</li>
<li>Description of that page</li>
<li>An URL of an image</li>
</ol>
And the plugin displays it below your post.
Facebook supports only one preview box per post. 
This plugin supports many preview boxes within one post, if you want.
Do you want to see it live on production servers?

URL-Preview-Box

That was really needed, because the automatic URL detection failed sometimes at very different designed WordPress templates.
This is the WordPress plugin, what I exactly needed. 
I use it now and will use it in the next years for sure.

Now it is possible to add manually preview boxes

This plugin adds link preview box to your post. You just copied & pasted an URL into your posting. :-)

Once this plugin has been installed you’ll easily be able to manage all your site redirects. In fact the plugin has no limits to the number of redirects you may manage. It works from dozens to millions (although you’ll need more than budget hosting for millions). All this is done through your familiar WordPress control panel.
You add redirect links, assign them unique names (so visitors can’t start guessing all your links), have the ability to enter notes (optional), and may even turn redirects on and off. This allows you to disable links that you don’t want redirected out but aren’t quite ready to delete. Now link aliases are supported!
Link aliases allow you to share the same destination URL for multiple names. This provides several advantages. For starters you may easily change your link names/titles without voiding the old ones. Also there are times when targeted link names work better. For example you might have a link to wrinkle cream and thus use wrinklecream, facialcream, fightwrinkles, etc. These names could be used in different articles, emails, forums, etc. While you could do this before it required a new redirect profile for each link name/title. The old method wasn’t a deal killer but it made management more of a hassle if you had to change the destination URL as you had to remember to change it for all profiles. Plus it wasn’t as easy to see all the links using the same destination URL. Well those days are gone with link aliases! So go ahead and get creative!
Also you are able to easily search through your redirect records to quickly locate matches. Plus you have total control over where visitors are sent if plugin can’t find a redirect match. All of this is easily changable at any time through WordPress.
Language Support: Should work for all languages that use the A-Z alphabet. Plugin only displays text (link names) entered by you. The only limitation is possible removal of unknown characters outside standard A-Z.
