k0nsl Short URLs

This plugin creates a short URL from the blog post permalink and stores it in the database. The URL is displayed below the blog post along with a link to twitter that passes the short URL on, if defined in the settings page. The plugin currently use knsl.net as the only service and stores the data in the database of knsl.net.

How do I use the k0nsl_show_url() function?

This function can be used in your theme files. For example, we echo k0nsl_show_url() in post.php and this will show “http://knsl.net/453”.
