Now you have installed the plugin, you can start using it.

Instructions


A new tab on the menu side of your WordPress admin portal will appear called LinkGather:

When you hover over this title option, you will then see a sub-menu with the different sections available to you:

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

Post Links


Push the Post Links option to navigate you to the page that will display all of your websites published posts’ links. Note 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 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 will see that LinkGather has also added up how many post URLs you have.

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

Page Links


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

JetPack ShortLinks


The option for JetPack URL's is again exactly the same check here 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 website 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 JetPack ShortLinks that it has gathered:
