A WordPress link preview plugin that creates a preview of a link on WordPress, similar to the Facebook’s link previews.
The plugin fetches and displays page title, content, link from a URL you provide, and exacts the preview image from Facebook Open Graph or Twitter Cards meta tags.
How to use it:
1. Install and activate the Beautiful Link Preview plugin on the WordPress.
2. Go to the Settings page and enable the plugin.
3. Customize the link previewed with the following options:
- Layout: Compact or Full
- Link Target Attribute
- Max number of title characters
- Max number of description characters
- Clear Data On Uninstall
4. Embed a link previewer into your post or page using the shortcode:
[beautiful_link_preview url="https://yoursite.com"]
5. That’s it. You can also pass the options with the following parameters:
[beautiful_link_preview layout="full" url="https://yoursite.com"] [beautiful_link_preview layout="compact" url="https://yoursite.com"] [beautiful_link_preview target="_blank" url="https://yoursite.com"] [beautiful_link_preview target="_self" url="https://yoursite.com"] [beautiful_link_preview target="_parent" url="https://yoursite.com"] [beautiful_link_preview target="_top" url="https://yoursite.com"] [beautiful_link_preview no_img url="https://yoursite.com"] [beautiful_link_preview no_title url="https://yoursite.com"] [beautiful_link_preview no_desc url="https://yoursite.com"] [beautiful_link_preview max_title_chars="20" url="https://yoursite.com"] [beautiful_link_preview max_desc_chars="60" url="https://yoursite.com"]
6. You can override any CSS classes starting with the CSS classname “zwt-wp-lnk-prev*” to fulfill your styling needs. Normally this can be done in the “Additional CSS” section of your theme.
