<p>With this Plugin you <strong>optimize your workflow</strong> as it enables you to auto-generate a shortened URL to your blog posts. So neither you nor your readers have to do it. These Short URLs are particular useful for twitter and alike as these services limit the messages of their users to a certain amount of characters – which leads to the situation that their users are forced to have an eye on what exactly they want to write. And by providing a very short URL it’s easier for them to spread the word on your blog article as they have more characters left for personal remarks.</p>
<p>Compared to other solutions <strong>this plugin caches the generated shortened URL</strong> – this makes it faster. If the permalink of the article changes, a new Short URL will be automatically generated. It also allows you to choose your favorite from a couple of Short URL Providers and lets you insert the shortened URL via a handy shortcode.</p>
<h4>Usage:</h4>
<ul>
<li>Place <code>[shorturl]</code> in your article where you want to display the shortened url.</li>
<li>Add optional info with parameters (see below)</li>
<li>If you don’t like shortcodes you can use the complete auto mode – that way the shortened URL gets always auto-added at the end of your articles.</li>
</ul>

<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin connects to the S.EE API to provide URL shortening, text sharing, and file hosting services. All core functionality depends on this external service.</p>
<h4>What the service is</h4>
<p><a href="https://s.ee" rel="nofollow ugc">S.EE</a> is a platform that provides URL shortening, text sharing (paste), and file hosting services. This plugin integrates these services into the WordPress admin dashboard.</p>
<h4>What data is sent and when</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>URL Shortening:</strong> When you shorten a URL (manually or via the auto-shorten option on publish), the post permalink, optional custom slug, and post title are sent to the API.</li>
<li><strong>Text Sharing:</strong> When you share text, the text content, title, and format type (plain text, Markdown, or source code) are sent to the API.</li>
<li><strong>File Upload:</strong> When you upload a file (manually or via the auto-upload option), the file is sent to the API.</li>
<li><strong>Domain Fetching:</strong> Your API key is sent to retrieve your available domains for short URLs, text sharing, and file hosting.</li>
<li><strong>Connection Test:</strong> Your API key and base URL are sent to verify your credentials.</li>
<li><strong>Deletion:</strong> When you delete a short URL, text share, or uploaded file, the corresponding identifier is sent to the API.</li>
</ul>
