If you click on the Home offering, this will take you to the plugins developer page which includes instructions, similar to these, on how to use the plugin.

Post Links


Push the Post Links menu to take you to the page that will display all of your blog sites published posts’ URL. Be aware that for the purposes of this guide, we are using our WordPress test site with just a few URLs in it.

You should now see a table with two columns, one for the title of your posts and check here another for the links of your posts. However how many posts you have will depend on how long this list will be.

At the bottom of the link table, you should see that LinkGather has also added up how many post URLs you have.

You then also have the ability to download the posts in Excel design.

Page Links


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

JetPack URL's


The option for JetPack Links is again exactly the same procedure 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 gather those links.

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

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