Handy Archive Link is a simple yet powerful WordPress plugin that adds a “View Archive” button to your admin screens, making it incredibly easy to preview archive pages without having to remember URLs or navigate away from your workflow.
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>One-Click Archive Access – View archive pages directly from post type list screens</li>
<li>Smart Detection – Only shows the button when an archive page exists</li>
<li>Customizable Settings – Choose your preferred icon, icon position, open behavior, and disable for specific post types</li>
<li>Automatic Management – Intelligently handles the default Posts type based on your Reading settings</li>
<li>Developer-Friendly – Includes filters for advanced customization</li>
<li>Lightweight – No bloat, just the essentials</li>
<li>Translation Ready – Fully translatable</li>
</ul>
<h4>Perfect For</h4>
<ul>
<li>Content managers who frequently preview archives</li>
<li>Developers building custom post types</li>
<li>Anyone who wants faster WordPress admin navigation</li>
<li>Sites with multiple custom post types</li>
</ul>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
Once activated, Handy Archive Link automatically adds a “View Archive” button next to the “Add New” button on all public post types with archives enabled.
The plugin intelligently detects: 
* Whether a post type has <code>has_archive</code> enabled 
* If a “Posts page” is set in Settings > Reading (for default Posts) 
* Automatically disables the button for Posts if no posts page is configured
No configuration needed – it just works! But if you want to customize, head to Settings > Handy Archive Link.
<h4>Customization Options</h4>
Open in New Tab 
Choose whether archive links open in a new browser tab or the same window.
Button Icon 
Select from 5 different icons: 
* External Link (default) 
* Eye 
* Link 
* Archive 
* Portfolio
Icon Position 
Choose whether the icon appears before or after the button text for a personalized look that matches your workflow.
Disabled Post Types 
Choose which post types should NOT display the “View Archive” button. Note: The default “Posts” type is automatically disabled if no posts page is configured in Settings > Reading.
<h4>Developer Features</h4>
Handy Archive Link includes filters for developers who need advanced control:
Post Type Filters: 
* <code>handy_archive_link_show</code> – Control button visibility per post type 
* <code>handy_archive_link_url</code> – Modify archive URL per post type
Example usage:
<pre><code>// Hide button for specific post type
add_filter('handy_archive_link_show', function($show, $post_type) {
 if ($post_type === 'my_cpt') {
 return false;
 }
 return $show;
}, 10, 2);

// Custom archive URL
add_filter('handy_archive_link_url', function($url, $post_type) {
 if ($post_type === 'product') {
 return home_url('/shop/');
 }
 return $url;
}, 10, 2);

// Conditional logic based on user role
add_filter('handy_archive_link_show', function($show, $post_type) {
 if ($post_type === 'product' && !current_user_can('manage_woocommerce')) {
 return false;
 }
 return $show;
}, 10, 2);
</code></pre>
<h4>Compatibility</h4>
Works seamlessly with: 
* Custom post types created by any plugin (ACF, Metabox, Pods, Toolset, etc.) 
* Any theme 
* Multisite installations 
* Page builders
<h4>Translations</h4>
Handy Archive Link is translation-ready and includes: 
* English (en_US) – Default 
* French (fr_FR) – Français
