Clicking on the Home title, this will take you to the plugins home page which supplies instructions, similar to these, on how to use the plugin.

Post Links



Hit the Post Links title to move you to the page that will show all of your blogs published posts’ links. Be aware that for the purposes of this instruction, we are using our WordPress test site with just a few URL's in it.

You should now see a table with two columns, one for the title of your posts and another for the links of your posts. However how many posts you have will depend on how long this list will be.

Underneath the link list, you will see that LinkGather has also added up how many post URLs you have.

You then also have the ability to download the articles in CSV style.

Page Links



The procedure above is exactly the same for Page Links, but instead of showing back published articles, it will bring back published pages instead:

JetPack ShortLinks



The option for JetPack URLs is again exactly the same procedure as those above, but, JetPack Links are actually built in short links created by the JetPack plugin. If you have the JetPack plugin installed, you must have the short click here now links option also enabled for our plugin to be able to get those URL.

If you do not have the JetPack short links module enabled, our plugin will just pull back basic post links instead.

Hoping that you have JetPack short links enabled, clicking on our plugins wp.me Links menu will bring back all those JetPack Links that it has gathered:
