Description
The Plugin adds an link preview box to your post.
The link preview box will be displayed like in Facebook! 🙂
This plugin can be used for free for maximal 10 URL Preview Boxes.
Perhaps you are familiar with Facebook.
When you write a post in Facebook and you paste an URL into your text,
Facebook detects that URL and adds automatically information about that URL under your post.
This plugin does it not automatically, you have to use the extra button in the visual editor (“URL BOX”).
Or you just write [urlpreviewbox url=”https://….”] into your text.
This plugin loads information about that URL from https://guteurls.de/ server.
- Title of that page
- Description of that page
- An URL of an image
And the plugin displays it below your post.
Facebook supports only one preview box per post.
This plugin supports many preview boxes within one post, if you want.
Do you want to see it live on production servers?
