Fix for query strings (like fbclid)

While no one should really be using this plugin anymore, here’s how to patch the plugin to support short urls that are shared on Facebook – this also works for any query string added to your shorturl. If you do not do this patch, your shorturls will redirect to a 404.

Open shorten-url.php in the plugin folder.

change line 923 from:
$param = explode("/", $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']) ;

to:
$param = explode("/", strtok($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '?')) ;
