Visual Link Preview

Mô tả

Easily create a Facebook-like link preview for any link on your website. You can choose the image and text to display and create your very own custom template. The default template can be styled from the settings to match your website.

Some examples of what you could use this for:

  • A call to action for your affiliate links
  • Promote WooCommerce products on your website
  • List sources for your article
  • A weekly posty of interesting websites you’ve found
  • Link to related posts on your own website

It does not require any database lookups, which means even having many of these blocks on a page should not affect performance.

Compatible with both the Classic and Gutenberg Block Editor using shortcodes and blocks.

<!– wp:paragraph –> <p class=””>The idea is great, but there are several shortcomings.<br>* Lacks basic localisation stuff like using translate files for “read more”-buttons (they’re in the standard wordpress translations, just add ‘wordpress’ after the string). Having to build a new template simply to translate a button is annoying. </p> <!– /wp:paragraph –> <!– wp:paragraph –> <p class=””>Edit: this is fixed :)</p> <!– /wp:paragraph –> <!– wp:paragraph –> <p class=””>* It’s not possible to add new blocks in templates. This limits severely the types of templates one can create, and the usefulness of this plugin.<br><br>Edit:</p> <!– /wp:paragraph –> <!– wp:paragraph –> <p class=””>As for custom blocks, I mostly want to add a “Read more about this” to the top of template.</p> <!– /wp:paragraph –> <!– wp:paragraph –> <p class=””>Though, I wished that template building was similar to normal block editing. So instead of custom settings, I could use the default block editor to set typography, colors, margins, padding, border etc.<br>That of course means to rewrite much of the plugin, but it would probably be better in the long run. First it would be consistent with the rest of Wordpress. It would also fix any responsivity issues (as the theme would handle that) and make it easier to create nice designs (using cover block for instance would be nice) for the users.</p> <!– /wp:paragraph –>
