This plugin add “External Link” section to your editor.
If your posts are used as news in your site, sometimes a post is titled simply “Our service is promoted in famous web magazine” and just having a single link to PR site.
This plugin will add a meta box to save metadata below:
<ol>
<li>External link</li>
<li>Open in new window</li>
</ol>
If you set external link, <code>the_permalink</code> will be replaced with it. The link in your widget, post archive, and so on will refer to the URL you saved.

Taro External Permalink

A WordPress plugin to allow some posts to have external permalink.

NOTE: recent WordPress versions already properly transliterate umlauts if the 
site language is German. In that case, German Slugs is no longer needed.
While creating a post or page, WordPress automatically suggests a permalink. If 
your permalink structure contains the %postname% tag, then the title of your 
post or page will be used, simplified by conversion to lowercase, replacing 
spaces with hyphens, removing certain punctuation characters and removing 
diacritics from latin letters.
Thus, by default, ä is replaced with a, ö with o, ü with u and ß with s (similar 
for capital letters). For German, the conventional transliteration is ä to ae, ö 
to oe, ü to ue and ß to ss (sometimes sz in Austria, this is not yet supported). 
This plugin makes your WordPress apply the conventional transliteration.
I wrote this plugin because manually correcting WordPress’s suggestions is a 
considerable hassle, especially if you decide to change the title afterwards.

German Slugs

German Slugs properly transliterates umlauts and the letter ß appearing in titles for slugs (i.e. for pretty permalinks).
