Hello,
This plugin is addon for Easy Social Share Buttons for WordPress to generate short URLs for sharing. Those short URLs are part of the WordPress installation. It is not a problem to modify the generate URL. But the problem is that it won’t simply work. The new subdomain won’t be connected with the WordPress installation and the short URL can’t be detected.
If you are sure that you have the knowledge to modify your server redirects so when you open https://short.domain.com to act like https://domain.com/short (where WordPress installation is located at https://domain.com) it is OK for us to do the change.
How does this work? I connected to my Premium URL Shortener Platform but it isn’t working properly. The share buttons are not utilizing the Short URLs.
Hello,
You don’t need this add-on to connect with Premium URL Shortener. The Easy Social Share Buttons have integration included in the core plugin. This add-on is made for those that don’t use services – short URLs are created on their website.
ok cool. Can I get a refund? or exchange it for a new Easy Social Share Buttons license for my own use?
Hello,
For sorrow, there is no way to swap the licenses. You can fill out the refund form and we will approve it https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/202821460-Can-I-Get-A-Refund-. In case you need a license for Easy Social Share Buttons for WordPress you can purchase it separately.
Hi, is it possible to shorten the url to users without forcing them to log in (like bitly)?
Hello,
This is an add-on for the Easy Social Share Buttons for WordPress. It will generate short URLs for sharing in the plugin only (yes, it will generate it without need user to be logged in). But you can’t use it outside the scope of the plugin.

Pre-sales Question: Where can I edit the URL slug in the Gutenburg interface? Is it still possible/supported?
Hello,
At this time it has a field for changes but not sure how it works with Gutenberg. Due to the lack of interest, the add-on is paused. And probably we will take it out of support.

Hello,
You can’t use this as a saas. This plugin is addon for Easy Social Share Buttons. And you can only as an addition. It can’t be used standalone.

does it have api documentation?
Hello,
It does not have an API for external access. This add-on is made to work with Easy Social Share Buttons for WordPress. There is an internal function that can be used to create a short URL while ESSB is running. But it is not tended to be used that way.

Hi – purchased this a while ago 
looked at documentation, couldn’t find it. With regards to the ‘mirror domain’, can you steer me in the direction of what to do? What are the exact DNS steps? Thank you!
Hello,
For sorrow, we can’t give such directions. You need to configure the short mirror domain point to the main site (like having two different domains for one site). You can contact your host support about that.

Fresh Install, I bought this and essb – Does this plugin display the shortened url in page, post etc to simply copy? How to display if yes? Also, the links in the buttons when clicked – they still display the full url? Can I ask you how I should update to short url please?

Hi, I already use the main easy social share plugin on my site and the plugin is FANTASTIC!!!. I am looking to get this short url addon and my question :
1 – Can I add a custom sharing image and title and description that shows up when shared through WhatsApp and FB. Or does it retrieves that from the destination URL ?
2 – How does mirror domain work ? When I mirror the domain, does it show up inside the WP dashboard or is it made somewhere else.
Hello,
The short URL is a redirect to the original full URL you have.
1 – No, you can’t have different. As written above the short will redirect to the original full URL and details from the full URL will appear always.
2 – The mirror domain should be configured usually in your hosting CP or CP where you manage DNS for your domains. The mirror domain is a short copy of the current domain you have – no matter you open full or short it will show the same.
The short URLs generated by extension are the same as you can have with bit.ly for example. The difference is that you don’t have an external service and have full control over the generation, unlimited number of short URLs, no external connections, etc.
Best Regards, AppsCreo Team
Thanks for the reply. Also, if I enable a mirror domain, does a short url gets created by default every time a link is created or is that done manually. Also, are there options for exceptions that basically disables short url creation if a post is created in a certain category and things like that…
Hello,
Yes, shorts are automatically created on a post with the publish. You can modify the attached short (replace automatically generated with your own). But right now there is no option to disable the generation on a specific category, post, post type, etc.
Concat us https://socialsharingplugin.com/contact/ to prepare a sandbox demo with plugin and add-on to do a test and see its features before buying. That will be better to know what to expect.

Hi, My domain has been blocked by fb (don’t know why) your easy social share plugin came with my theme (bimber) if I buy this addon, would I be able to clone the domain and share it on fb?
Thank you
Hello,
The add-on creates short URLs connected with your domain name (self-hosted). And it has an option to use a custom domain name for shorts. But this domain should be mirrored to your primary or it won’t work. If the domain is blocked in Facebook the best is first to see why so (usually that happens from a report in the published content).
The short URL is designed to redirect to the full URL (primary domain). This is the way external service works and that is how the add-on also works. Before going with the purchase you can give a try using the bit.ly shorts.
Best Regards, AppsCreo Team
Hi, did the location of the short URL’s list change? I can not find it in my plugin.
Hello,
Sorry about that. Looks that the update did not appear for download. We push it again and you should get an email when able to download. Meanwhile, contact us https://socialsharingplugin.com/contact/ to send it directly.

I purchase 2 license on March 10, 2020, And faced an issue, so I start a topic on their support platform on March 11, 2020, and the support asked for more details, I replied in the same day with the info they asked for, and I waited for any response, but no one respond. I tired to contact them on March 20, 2020, but still no one answered. Is there anyway to refund my money as it seems a hopeless case?
Hello,
You have reply via mail where you also write.

I just wonder if this plug-in or coding application can be used when someone submits an ad to my classified ad section. Like for example I create a button titled Grubhub and someone pastes their URL Address and so forth as to creating additional buttons for links.
Hello,
You can’t use it for this. The plugin generates short URLs for sharing in Easy Social Share Buttons. But instead of uses an external service they are build in WordPress. And those generated URLs are connected with share command. You can use the shorts but manually – copy form post edit screen or manually create a short from plugin settings connected to random URL.
Best Regards, AppsCreo Team
Figured as such. Just think someone should create a plug-in or at least something for these themes where one can drag additional fields and not play around with the Cascade Styling Sheets as to coding. Basically a drag and drop. Also, noticed at least when my theme allows custom fields = you can’t rearrange them for categories so, that’s annoying since I have to first layout vs. creating fields and then dragging and dropping them as it pertains to categories. Thanks for quickly responding also.
Hello,
It will be left visible as idea. For not it looks to abstract but if there are additional users that need a similar functionality we will consider creating a product.

Hi, on my WordPress website, it says $14.
Hello,
Recently we increase the price of all plugin extensions. All users will see the updated price with the next official update. The actual price is the one you see on the product page.
In case you are interested in product than there is about a month till black friday offers appear and you can get a deal for the extension.
Best Regards, AppsCreo Team
I’ll wait for black friday. Thank you.
Okay, I bought the product now. I can not understand how I can use the shortener like Bitly.
Hello,
The extension is to generate a self-hosted short URLs without using any external service. The bitly short URL generation is part of Easy Social Share Buttons (included in the main plugin version).
If you have any questions related to plugin work refer to our support system https://support.creoworx.com. Questions for extensions should be placed in the ESSB section (as you can use extention without the plugin).
Best Regards, AppsCreo Team
Hi, I am sorry since I am not a techy person. I installed the product. I couldn’t find the extension other than that in the main social share plug-in there is a tab ‘short url’. Inside the ‘short url’ tab are only two option settings 1. shorten url on these social sites 2. Use _ service as base name of short url.
The documentation in your website is confusing for someone like me. I was thinking the extension will be somewhere inside the main plug-in and I just to go there and have to paste my long url and it will automatically generate a shorten url for me.
I hope you can add some photos or videos on where I can find the extension and how to use the extension after installation.

Hi! I have a question before I buy. When I create a short url, does the landing page show the short url address or the original url address? Thanks in advance!
Hello,
It will show the full URL. The short URL will redirect to the full permalink.
Best Regards, AppsCreo Team
Thanks so much! I do have one more question. I have a domain that is forwarded to my website’s domain, it’s a shorter name. When I use the shorter domain name in the “Custom short url domain” field and create a short url for a post, the url leads to my homepage instead of the post. Am I doing something wrong?
Hello,
Please contact us inside ESSB support board to see where the problem is.

How to use https urls? Still no analytics? It’s quite useless without analytics and only with http.
Hello,
The initial intent of plugin was to generate a set of short URLs without use of any external services. The option for analytics is considered if there are enough users that will use it. The https support is set by default inside the code and if after switch to https you did not see a newly generated shorts with https than contact support team https://support.creoworx.com for additional information and assistance.
