Description

Making it easier for you to access your drafts, this plugin will add links to the WP Admin menu to both yours and all drafts post and pages. Oh, and it will also show you how many drafts there are too.

Just install and enable – there are no settings.

The code passes WordPress and WordPress VIP coding standards 🎉

  1. Upload the entire draft-links folder to your wp-content/plugins/ directory.
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress administration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you support this plugin on forks of WordPress?

No. It was developed for WordPress and so forks remain unsupported. I have no intention of developing and testing this on any other version.
