Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about URL Shortener by Melk

Yes! You can enable which post types you want to generate short URLs for in the plugin settings.

We use a secure Base62 algorithm to create short and unique strings (e.g., abc12) based on the post ID.

The page wins. Short URLs are only resolved when WordPress would otherwise return a "page not found" error, so your pages, posts and categories are never affected.

By default nothing is removed, so your short links keep working if you reinstall. To remove the table, settings and stored short codes on deletion, enable "Delete all plugin data" in the Danger Zone (Settings > URL Shortener) before deleting the plugin. The same area also has a button to delete all short URLs without removing the plugin.

No. URL Shortener by Melk focuses only on generating and redirecting short URLs. For automatic social media content (card text, captions, and more), check out our companion plugin, Social Kit by Melk.
