In other words, kURL is built for creating and managing short URLs from WordPress.<\/p>\n\n It lets you create short URLs for posts, pages, and supported custom post types directly from the WordPress admin area. You can generate links manually, create them automatically when content is published, assign custom keywords, refresh click statistics, and process older content in bulk.<\/p>\n\n kURL also includes migration tools for older Better YOURLS data, local logging for troubleshooting, and optional helper code for true remote deletion and safe reverse lookup on the YOURLS side.<\/p>\n\n Requires a self-hosted YOURLS installation with API access. No third-party shortening service is included.<\/p>\n\n kURL communicates only with the self-hosted YOURLS API endpoint configured by a WordPress administrator. Depending on the action, WordPress sends the YOURLS signature token, the target URL, an optional title or keyword, or an existing short URL. These data are used to create, inspect, edit, regenerate, or delete links and to retrieve click statistics. The plugin developer does not operate an intermediary service, receive these requests, or add tracking. Storage and processing on the YOURLS server are controlled by that server's operator and configuration.<\/p>\n\n kURL stores logs under French translation: Norbert Jung.<\/p>\n\n\n For remote deletion, safe reverse lookup, and safe regeneration, use the helper installation section under kURL \u2192 Settings<\/strong>. The helper is bundled inside the WordPress plugin: download its By default, kURL uses WordPress's safe HTTP client, which rejects private and loopback API addresses. If WordPress and YOURLS intentionally communicate over a private network, an administrator can opt in to that endpoint with the The \u201ck\u201d stands for kurz<\/strong>, the German word for \u201cshort\u201d.
