FAQ

If I reorganize the structure or change my permalink settings will the links still work?

Yes, the links generated by shortcodes will auto update themselves so you’ll have no broken links.

Does this plugin support custom post types?

Yes, posts with a custom type will be listed in the results when searching for a shortcode. The plugin will also add a shortcode search box to any ‘Add New’ or ‘Edit’ public custom post type page

Can I use custom link text in the shortcode?

Yes, using the shortcode [link id=’123′ text=’my link text’] will produce a link of the following my link text.

You can also add class and rel attributes to the shortcode. [link id=’123′ text=’my link text’ class=’my-class’ rel=’external’] will produce the following link
my link text

Both of these examples can be viewed in Internal Link Shortcode Lookup box by clicking on the ‘?’.

Anything else?

That about does it – enjoy!
