TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

GT Link Manager is for WordPress site owners who want a branded link management and redirect system, similar to Pretty Links. It solves the performance overhead of custom-post-type-based link plugins by storing links in custom database tables and resolving redirects early, keeping sites fast even with many links.

  • 301, 302, and 307 redirects
  • Rel attribute controls (nofollow, sponsored, ugc)
  • Noindex support via X-Robots-Tag
  • Categories and tags organization
  • Full admin list table with bulk actions
  • Quick Edit inline updates
  • CSV import and export
  • Block editor integration

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about GT Link Manager

Yes. GT Link Manager is built for speed and simplicity. It uses custom database tables instead of custom post types, which means redirects resolve faster and don't pollute your posts table.
Click stats can be activated from settings. You can also use the gtlm_before_redirect action hook to integrate your own tracking or analytics.
Yes. Go to GT Links > Import / Export, choose the Pretty Links or LinkCentral preset, upload your CSV, preview the column mapping, and import. You can also use the Generic preset for custom CSV formats.
The plugin hooks into WordPress init at priority 0 (before most plugins load). It parses the request URI, checks for your configured prefix, and looks up the slug in a UNIQUE-indexed column in a custom database table. If a match is found, it sends the redirect header and exits immediately — no theme or template loading.
Yes. By default, any user with the edit_posts capability can manage links. Use the gtlm_capabilities filter to change this per context (e.g., require manage_options for settings but allow edit_posts for link creation).
Uninstalling the plugin (deleting it from Plugins) will remove all data — both database tables and plugin options. Deactivating the plugin preserves all data.
