When you click on the Home title, this will go to the plugins home page which includes instructions, similar to these, on how to use the plugin.

Post Links


Click the Post Links offering to move you to the page that will reveal all of your blog websites published posts’ URL's. Note that for the purposes of these instructions, we are using our demo test site with just a few URLs in it.

You will now see a check here list 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 URL's table, you should see that LinkGather has also calculated how many post URL you have.

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

Page Links


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

JetPack ShortLinks


The option for JetPack ShortLinks is again exactly the same method 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 links option also enabled for our plugin to be able to get those URLs.

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

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