Easy Symlinks lets you create and manage symbolic links (symlinks) directly from the WordPress admin dashboard — no command line required.
Features:
<ul>
<li>Create symlinks by specifying a target directory and link path</li>
<li>Delete symlinks individually through a simple dropdown interface</li>
<li>Automatic environment detection for Pantheon hosting (Dev, Test, Live, Multidev)</li>
<li>Filesystem writability checks — prevents symlink creation in read-only environments</li>
<li>Displays existing symlinks and their targets</li>
<li>Tracks only symlinks created through the plugin</li>
<li>Duplicate symlink detection — prevents creating symlinks that already exist</li>
<li>Preset symlinks — auto-detects plugins like Wordfence and offers one-click symlink setup</li>
<li>Optional database cleanup on plugin uninstall via Settings tab</li>
</ul>
How to use:
Navigate to Settings > Easy Symlinks in your WordPress admin dashboard. The “Presets” tab auto-detects installed plugins that need symlinks (e.g., Wordfence on Pantheon). Use the “Add Symlinks” tab to create custom symlinks, the “Delete Symlinks” tab to remove them, and the “Settings” tab to configure plugin options.
For common symlink configurations on Pantheon, refer to the <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/topic/list-of-common-symlinks-in-pantheon" rel="ugc">list of common symlinks</a>.
Important notes:
<ul>
<li>This plugin only tracks symlinks created within the application. Symlinks created from the filesystem or command line are not tracked.</li>
<li>Best used in Pantheon Dev or Multidev environments in SFTP mode.</li>
<li>Symlink creation is disabled in read-only environments (e.g., Pantheon Test and Live).</li>
</ul>
