    Hello,

    When i am creating a short url for a post its getting replaced everywhere on my site for that post.
    Is it possible to create the short url just to be used outside of wordpress for sharing the post? and not actually replacing the post link on my site (ex: post link from my homepage goes to the short url then the actual post link)

    thank you

    Hello,

    Thank you for your reply.
    I’m using the latest version 1.5.4

    The short url is replacing the post url on all the site (grid layout blocks, related posts block, etc.)
    I’m using Avada Theme.

    I’ll contact you by email for sure.

    Thanks again.

    Hi,

    Just want to update you that we have found the issue. We will fix it and release a new version of URL Shortify by Wednesday.

    Meanwhile, if you want to fix the issue, you can comment the following code by adding // (double slash) in the file url-shortify/lite/includes/Common/Actions.php

    // add_filter( 'post_link', array( $this, 'get_post_short_permalink' ), 10, 3 );

    Hope that helps.
