When you click on the Home link, this will take you to the plugins homepage which has instructions, similar to these, on how to use the plugin.

Post Links


Click the Post Links title to take you to the page that will display all of your blog websites published posts’ URL. 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 list with two columns, check here one for the title of your posts and another for the links of your posts. Depending on how many posts you have will depend on how long this list will be.

Underneath the URL's list, you should see that LinkGather has also calculated how many post links you have.

You then also have the option to download the posts in CSV style.

Page Links


The above procedure is exactly the same for Page Links, but instead of supplying back published URLs, it will bring back published pages instead:

JetPack URLs


The option for wp.me Links is again exactly the same method as those above, but, wp.me 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 gather those URLs.

If you do not have the JetPack short read more 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 tab will bring back all those wp.me Links that it has gathered:
